Lake Bonavista offers skating on our top rink and on the lake rinks and path (once the ice is thick enough).
Our main building has an area to change into your skates, and store your shoes and other items while you skate. We also have change areas outside the building. These are unattended areas, so please do not leave valuables. We do have lockers inside the building. Please bring your own lock.
Top Rink
Our top rink is the first to open. It is located just outside the doors of our main building. This is a pleasure rink, and thus no pucks or hockey sticks are allowed here.
Lake Ice
The lake ice opens after the top rink, once the ice thickens enough to hold our equipment. You can access the lake ice by following the padded walkway off the Top Rink.
We try to maintain three rinks on the lake: the Falls Rink (pleasure skating only), the Inn Rink (hockey), and the Bonus Rink (hockey). We also plow and maintain a skating path that goes around the lake.
Tobogganing

We have one toboggan area in the park. Our Toboggan Hill is located on the north end of the park, just past the bridge on the walking path.
NO TOBOGGANING ANYWHERE ELSE IN THE PARK.
Sledders should always watch for people on the path below them.
People on the walking path should take notice of sledders coming down the hill at all times

Tobogganing Etiquette:
- Please use caution and watch for others using the hill and for those using the walking paths.
- Walk up the sides of the hill instead of walking up the main chute.
- Do not stand at the bottom of the hill. Please exit the base quickly.
- Remove your sleds from the base of the hill if they are not being used.
- Yield to sledders from higher up on the slope.
- Helmets are recommended.

Please stay within 150 feet of the east side of the island ONLY. Limit to one hole.
All other areas are out of bounds until we can set
