Glide into the holidays

For those keen to build their skills, the Easter fast-track Learn to Skate courses will also run during the holidays on Monday 6 March and Monday 6 April. Designed for beginners aged 5-15, the week-long sessions are led by expert coaches and offer a fun introduction to skating.

Enjoy breathtaking panoramic views stretching up to 25 miles across the capital on this fully guided, one-of-a-kind experience.
