Toronto's scenic outdoor waterfront skating rink opens next month

Whether you live in the city or you’re visiting from out of town, skating at the Harbourfront Natrel rink is a quintessential winter activity.
And if the chilly temperatures we’ve experienced lately stick around, the rink will be opening up very soon.
According to the Harbourfront Centre, the Natrel Rink is set to open up next month. This is, of course, weather permitting, so let’s hope this cold weather sticks around.

While there are plenty of skating rinks located in the city, Queen’s Quay easily offers up some of the most beautiful views of the city, and skating with a view of the lake and the city skyline is definitely a great way to spend a winter day (or night).
