Colonel Sam Smith is Toronto’s original refrigerated skating trail: a 250-metre figure-eight through shoreline woods in Etobicoke, next to the Power House Recreation Centre at 65 Colonel Samuel Smith Park Road. City drop-in leisure skate is free; there are typically no on-site rentals, so come with your own. The Power House has been the heated change-room play in past winters. Outdoor artificial ice citywide usually opens late November and closes in March; as of 29 August 2026 the trail is closed for the season (toronto.ca Drop-in Skating). First-timers: this is the anti-NPS skate — quieter, lakeside, and you will be sorry without a thermos. Tatsu’s Bread on Lake Shore is the post-skate bakery (closed Sundays). 311, or (416) 392-9715 for the park complex.
