  • The Barbara Ann Scott Trail is named after the Canadian figure skater, who won gold in the 1948 Olympic Games! 
  • The trail, designed to be a walking loop in summer, is the first exterior skating path in North America to incorporate state-of-the-art, environmentally friendly, carbon dioxide technology in its refrigeration system. 

The skate trail will be open until March (weather permitting). Visit Toronto.ca for more info.
