滑冰是利用滑冰鞋在冰上进行行走或竞速等项目的运动。在冬季奥林匹克运动会中，滑冰为一个单独大项，下设竞速类的短道速滑、竞速滑冰和表演类的花样滑冰3个分项。

此外，使用特制的轮滑鞋在光滑的地面上前进的运动称为“滑旱冰”，即滚轴溜冰，又称轮滑。

Ice skating is the act of moving on ice by using ice skates. It can be done for a variety of reasons, including exercise, leisure, traveling, and various sports. Ice skating occurs both on specially prepared ice surfaces (arenas, tracks, parks), both indoors and outdoors, as well as on naturally occurring bodies of frozen water, such as ponds, lakes and rivers.
