Neutralinos annihilating in the center of the Sun or the Earth may give rise to a detectable signal of neutrinos. We derive the indirect detection rates for neutrino telescopes in the minimal supersymmetric extension of the standard model. We show that even after imposing all phenomenological and experimental constraints that make the theories viable, regions of parameter space exist which can already be probed by existing neutrino telescopes. We compare with the discovery potential of supersymmetry at CERN LEP 2 as well as direct detections and point out the complementarity of the methods. {copyright} {ital 1997} {ital The American Physical Society}
