Lonza Arena, Indoor ice rink in Visp, Switzerland
Lonza Arena is an indoor ice rink in Visp designed for both competitive hockey matches and public skating. The facility features tiered seating that provides clear views of the ice, alongside multiple changing rooms and food service areas throughout the venue.
The facility opened in 2019 as a replacement for the older Litternahalle that had served the community since 1978. This newer venue reflected the town's commitment to providing modern sports infrastructure for ice hockey and community activities.
The venue serves as home to the EHC Visp ice hockey club and welcomes local residents for public skating sessions throughout the week. Visitors can experience match days when the stands fill with fans cheering for their team or enjoy quieter moments during community skating times.
The venue is easy to reach and offers activities throughout the week for both spectators and skaters. Visitors should check ahead to see when public skating sessions are scheduled, as these times vary depending on training sessions and matches.
The building uses an ammonia-free cooling system that captures waste heat for energy efficiency, setting it apart as an environmentally conscious sports facility. This approach reduces the operational impact while maintaining optimal ice conditions year-round.
