FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS 

Coeur d’Alene on Ice is a seasonal ice rink located in McEuen park in downtown Coeur d’Alene.  It runs from the middle of November through January and is locally owned and operated by the Layden family.

The rink is an open-air, outdoor venue, so it is generally just a few degrees colder on the ice than it is outside.  We have 3 igloos that can be reserved, a fire pit and patio heaters to warm you up during your skate session.

We suggest wearing long socks for skating in addition to a hat, gloves, and jacket on cold days.

We provide lockers free of charge to guests. Feel free to bring a padlock if you wish to lock up items.

Parking can be found in several places around downtown Coeur d’Alene.  There is a parking lot adjacent to McEuen Park that charges for parking. Free street parking is located around downtown, also, subject to availability.
