Salzburg’s range of ice sports has one more attraction. With the new mobile ice-skating circuit through the area of the Volksgartenbad, an additional 1,400 m² of ice rink will be available for ice sports fans. Two ice rinks (300 m² and 400 m²) are connected with a total of 240 m long and three meter wide ice paths. The new ice circuit is connected to the covered open space and leads through the bathing area of the Volksgarten bath. It blends harmoniously into the area.
