16 shots from Old Montreal's giant outdoor skating rink (PHOTOS)

Old Montreal’s Natrel Skating Rink opened for the winter season in December and with winter in full ~~skate~~ swing, we’re showing off pictures of the rink to get you excited to lace up the skates.

Known for its outstanding quality of ice, excellent facilities, and breathtaking views of the city, La Grande Roue and the Saint Lawrence River, this is the place to go outdoor skating in Montreal and it’s oozing with photo opps, especially from atop the ferris wheel.

There’s no better way to stick it to winter than bundling up and hitting the ice.

The chilled rink features a cozy village right in front of the ice and is a puck’s throw away from Bistro Bonsecours for a little post-game refresher.

Natrel’s Skating Rink plays rock, classical and jazz music on large outdoor speakers to add to the soundtrack of you whizzing down the ice.

The rink is open daily from 10 am until March and admission prices range from $5 to $7 depending on your age.

Sharpen those blades and tighten your laces, here are 16 shots from the first month of the Natrel Skating Rink.
