Skateboarding Mad?
Cardiff City Council has several skateboard and BMX Dirt tracks in Cardiff to keep you busy and more on the way.
Come and join the fun at a site near you, meet new friends and learn new tricks.
And guess what? It's free! We have challenging skateboard parks for all levels and ages, offering a great way to burn up energy and stay fit.
Try your hand at these: · arial - jump - flip - grab - slide - stall - halfpipe
These are all terms you may have heard before, but soon you'll be familiar with them and bragging about your skills down at your local skatepark.
Off the street and into the skatepark
Skateparks are a great place to meet up with friends, catch up on all the gossip and brush up on those skating skills.... it's a lot safer too!

Mobile ramps
In addition to our usual Skateparks we also have a selection of mobile ramps which tour the city to provide skating facilities where none usually exist. These visits often take place in school holidays to give a greater range of activities.
Please keep and eye out for the timetable link to see when the ramp is coming to a park near you.
Free swimming
Enjoy the fun and swim free of charge at a swimming pool near you!
In 2003 the Welsh Assembly Government launched a Wales-wide scheme offering free swimming for the over 60s, and for the under 16s during school holidays. The scheme is aimed at promoting a healthy and active lifestyle. To apply to take part in the free swimming initiative pick up an application form at any of the seven Cardiff Council pools.
Under 16s
Under 16s can enjoy free swimming during school holidays. The Cardiff scheme runs seven days a week between 10:00am and 4:00pm and is in operation at all the council's swimming pools.
