Ice skating at Little Stokka Lake
When
the message goes out that the lakes are safe for skating, hundreds or
thousands of people - young and old - head out there with skates, sledges,
hockey sticks, hot drinks, hot dogs and big smiles to make the most of
it. Litle Stokka and Mosvatnet are the two
main lakes used in Stavanger. |

It
doesn't cost much to buy ice skates here, and if you're here when the lakes
are frozen and declared safe then you must come down to the lakes, even
if you don't skate yourself, just to see, and be part of, the fun and games.
This does not happen very often - certainly not every winter - but if you're here when it does happen, make the most of it! You will see all ranges of ability, from those who can't stand up on skates to competition-standard ice dancers and hockey players. Some family groups will have barbeques and picnics by the side of the lake. Map reference: Kartblad 1212IV Stavanger, 3097 65416 By car: Litle Stokka lake is just west of the E 39 road as it heads north out of Stavanger.
