All the skating rinks described above are paid. As for the free analogues, there are just a huge number of them in Moscow. For example, the skating rink at the Patriarch's Ponds operates around the clock, as does its counterpart called the New League. There is also an ice skating rink at the Moscow Zoo and Park 60th Anniversary of October, whose opening hours are limited from 11 am to 11 pm. It is also worth recalling the free skating rinks at Fili, Dubki and in Nikulino Park. The hours of operation of some of them are also unlimited.

On Chistye Prudy there is a skating rink that works spontaneously - as soon as frost appears, the skating rink is immediately flooded and opened. It is also open 24/7. But the skating rink in Strogino and Ostankino ice receives guests only from 10 am to 10 pm.

Believe me, on the New Year's weekend of 2017, when you have enough time to relax, it is worth visiting one of the skating rinks in Moscow with the whole family. True, if you need amenities and good ice, it is better to choose paid skating rinks, otherwise you are welcome to numerous round-the-clock places of ice figures. Happy holidays and good ice to you!
