I tried Nottingham Winter Wonderland's Sky Skate and it took Christmas to the next level

Nottingham is well known for it's Winter Wonderland, with the ice rink and big wheel returning to Old Market Square each year alongside dozens of unique stalls. However, this year's ice rink is like no other, with the Mellors Group creating a new sky skate path in addition to the ice rink.

The Winter Wonderland will be in Nottingham over Christmas until December 31, which means there is plenty of time to take your skates to the sky. I decided to test out the experience on a Tuesday evening and although there were quite a lot of people there, due to the large ice rink on the ground and length of the sky skate upstairs, it didn't feel too busy or ever get too crowded.

Once at the site it only takes a couple of minutes to swap your shoes for a pair of skates, and you can keep all your precious items in one of the lockers for free. This is a great way to make sure you don't break or lose anything if you slip and end up on the ice.
