Glice Ice Rink at Sunnyland
Sunnyland Adventure Park, which is situated on Mount Trebević, has opened the first Glice Ice Rink in B&H providing its visitors a unique sliding feel with a panoramic view of Sarajevo.
Skating on Glice artificial ice skating rink provides a sliding feel identical with that of skating on real ice. Professional athletes also skate on this type of ice rink, and experts recommend it because synthetic ice panels are seamlessly connected and skaters glide over the surface without feeling the joints between the panels. The rink is open to skaters of all age groups from 9 am to 10 pm, and rental skates are available too. Ice rink entrance fee costs BAM 5 and includes skates.
