Whether on prepared rinks or frozen lakes: ice skating in the south of South Tyrol

The ice rinks in Appiano and Caldaro (Raiffeisen Arena), Andriano, Ora (Schwarzenbach) and Egna (Würth Arena) are great for ice skating. But when it's cold enough, two very special natural ice surfaces are a major draw: the Big Monticolo Lake and Lake Caldaro. So, don't just pack your skis, but your ice skates too - or you can simply hire them on site.
As the lakes often freeze in several stages, you should be careful when stepping onto the ice. This is especially true towards the end of winter, when temperatures in the south of South Tyrol begin to rise again. Since these are unsupervised bodies of water, you step onto the ice at your own risk.
