Sandstone Ice Park


The Sandstone Ice Park is a partnership between the city of Sandstone, MN and the MCA. The Sandstone Ice Park is located in the city-owned Robinson Park. All maintenance and upkeep of the ice farming effort is conducted by a dedicated crew of creative and resourceful volunteers. A labor of love, for the joy of winter climbing. The ice park has four farmed areas: the Upper Schoolroom, the Lower Schoolroom, the Stage Wall, and the North End (also called the Main Flow Area). A system of water pipes, pex tubes, misting nozzles, and low-flow showerheads creates ice flows on the quarried sandstone walls in Robinson Park for WI 3 - 5 climbs ranging from 30 - 80 feet tall.
