Below are four ice rinks in and around Lviv, and they differ a lot. The indoor rink at King Cross Leopolis mall (Stryiska 30, Sokilnyky — the mall with the Auchan hypermarket) covers over 800 m² and runs all year in 45-minute sessions — 10:00 to 18:15 on weekdays, 11:15 to 19:30 at weekends — with parking for about 1800 cars. The city's largest open-air rink is flooded each winter at the Medyk leisure complex on Horbachevskoho 24. Seasonal rinks appear by Duck's Lake on Stryiska 200A and at Emily Resort in Vynnyky, which also runs a ski lift, tubing and slopes in winter.

The indoor rink at King Cross Leopolis mall (Stryiska 30, Sokilnyky; the mall with Auchan): over 800 m², open year-round, with skating split into 45-minute sessions — 10:00 to 18:15 on weekdays, 11:15 to 19:30 at weekends.
At King Cross a 45-minute session costs 300 UAH for adults and 250 UAH for children, skate rental included (mall website, October 2026). Seasonal rinks have not announced this season's prices yet; last season (ZAXID.NET, December 2025) an hour at Medyk cost 300/250 UAH on weekdays and 350/300 UAH at weekends (adult/child, rental included), 45 minutes at Duck's Lake from 350 UAH with rental or 250 UAH with your own skates, and 300–400 UAH with rental at Emily Resort depending on the day.
Not yet: Hakivka, Lviv’s first municipal ice arena (on the grounds of School No. 84), opened on 27 October 2026 and runs in test mode for the first 1–1.5 months, used by sports schools, hockey players, figure skaters and the Nezlamni para ice hockey team. After the test period it will open for public skating, with one free hour every day for residents who bring their own skates. Hours and prices have not been announced yet.
At the Medyk leisure complex on Horbachevskoho 24 — flooded each winter, it is the city's largest outdoor rink. In summer the same grounds run a 50-metre swimming pool.
Yes. A seasonal rink operates at Emily Resort in Vynnyky, which in winter also runs a ski lift with three slopes and tubing, and another appears by Duck's Lake on Stryiska 200A.
Open-air rinks depend on the weather: they are usually flooded once steady frosts arrive in December and stay until February. Each complex announces its own date, so call ahead before travelling.
For December–January, mind the format: King Cross runs fixed 45-minute sessions and weekend or school-holiday slots go early. Open-air rinks depend on frost — call ahead before heading to Medyk, Duck's Lake or Emily Resort to check whether the ice is laid this week. Skate rental is not available everywhere, so bringing your own solves half the questions.
