It’s hard to believe it, but the holiday season is speed skating its way right at us, and with it comes the return of a new tradition — the Portland Winter Ice Rink.
Following a successful first season, Prosper Portland is planning an icy encore in the same spot, next to Tom McCall Waterfront Park at the west end of the Morrison Bridge (499 SW Naito Pkwy.), from Saturday, Nov. 16 through Sunday, Jan. 5.
Visitors will be able to rent skates and do their best Michelle Kwan during 90-minute skate sessions, from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. each day (the ice is resurfaced between each session). Afterward, pay a visit to the Winter Village, where you’ll find art, music, food, and cozy warm beverages.
Parking is available on site for $4 per hour or $9 for the whole day.
