In 2013, The Huffington Post included the Half Dome Village (previously called Curry Village) ice skating rink as one of the staff's 10 favorite ice skating rinks. "If ice skating isn’t something that usually takes your breath away, the stunning views of the Half Dome and Glacier Point totally will."

As of December 2017, the Half Dome Village Ice Rink is now located back in its original spot near the Huff Housing area. It opened for the season on Saturday, Dec. 16. There is currently no lighting available for night skating, so the rink will be open during daylight hours only.
Skating will be available from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday and noon to 4 p.m. during the weekdays.

At Yosemite's south entrance, lace up some ice skates and hit the rink at Tenaya Lodge. Tenaya’s sparkling white ice rink measures an expansive 80 feet by 40 feet, and is open for day and evening skating sessions. Enjoy the romance and family fun of gliding over the ice while surrounded by the Sierra National Forest. Ice skating is a winter sport that’s a fun challenge for all ages and abilities.
