Leysin Ice Rink Sports Centre (Centre sportif de la patinoire Leysin)
The Leysin Ice Rink Sports Centre is one of two municipal sports hubs in Leysin in the Swiss canton of Vaud, located on Route des Centres Sportifs at the entrance to the village. Together with the nearby pool centre, the Leysin sports centres offer more than thirty sports and leisure activities across all four seasons for individuals, schools, clubs and corporate groups.
Around the main covered ice rink the complex brings together curling sheets, a full size synthetic football pitch on the edge of the Suchet forest, a 100 metre sprint track, a tartan multi use games area, a beach volleyball court, a pump track for bikes and skate sports, disc golf and various indoor halls for multi sport, martial arts and fitness. These facilities make the site a versatile base for football, ice and court sports, athletics and action sports training camps at altitude, as well as for local leagues and public sessions.
The Leysin Ice Rink Sports Centre is operated by Gestion Sportive Leysin S.A. and works closely with local clubs and the Maison du Sport Vaudois to host youth camps, school weeks, team building events and regional tournaments, while the on site restaurants and services support extended stays in the resort.
