Gangneung Indoor Ice Rink

Gangneung Indoor Ice Rink is a sports complex with two regulation ice surfaces designed for competitions and training. The facility accommodates thousands of spectators and uses advanced systems to maintain ice conditions year-round.

The facility opened in 1998 and became an important venue, hosting major international competitions just a year later. Its early success helped establish Gangneung as a destination for winter sports events in the region.

The rink serves as a gathering place for local ice sports enthusiasts who come to watch training sessions and competitions throughout the year. Over time, it has helped make winter sports a regular part of the city's recreational life.

The complex is easy to reach as it sits in a central location with public transport access. Visitors should check ahead about scheduled events, as availability changes depending on the competition calendar.

This venue had already established itself as a training and competition destination well before the city hosted the 2018 Winter Olympics. Its earlier track record made it a stable part of local sports infrastructure when international attention arrived.
