Colorado offers some of the most scenic ice skating in the country. Picture gliding across a frozen lake with snow-capped mountains rising in the distance, or skating at a village rink while snow falls gently around you. It's winter magic that belongs in a postcard.
Options range from natural frozen lakes to groomed resort rinks. Evergreen Lake near Denver is the iconic choice - a natural lake that freezes solid each winter. Keystone's lakeside rink is one of the largest outdoor rinks in the country. Mountain village rinks in Vail and Beaver Creek offer European atmosphere.
Denver has urban options too, from the downtown rink at Skyline Park to the Southwest Rink at Civic Center. These make for easy evening outings with holiday lights and hot cocoa nearby.
