About Altındağ Belediyesi Buz Pisti

Altındağ Belediyesi Buz Pisti, often called the Ali Ersoy ice rink after the surrounding neighbourhood, is an indoor ice-skating rink run by Altındağ Municipality in Güneşevler, on the north-eastern side of central Ankara. According to the municipality, the facility covers a usable area of about 4,000 square metres and was built entirely with real ice; its semi-Olympic rink has 900 square metres of ice. The rink is used both by the public and by sports clubs. A 2023 guide to Ankara's ice rinks by Bilkent University's student news site, Bilkent Post, described a 150-seat spectator stand and a cafeteria, weekend morning slots set aside for club training and private lessons, beginner courses, and afternoon sessions open to the public. It also reported that the rink closes on Mondays for weekly maintenance, that skaters must be at least seven, and that under-18s need a parent with them. Session times and rules may have changed since then; the rink posts its current session times on its Instagram account, @altindagbuzpisti. The municipality's posts from February 2026 show the rink busy with young skaters, and visitors describe it as one of the more affordable places to skate in Ankara. Prices are not published on the municipality's page, so ask when you book. Practical notes: book ahead by phone on the number given here, as walk-in use has not been allowed in the past. A visitor's post notes that city bus 450 serves the area.
