Rink at the Brink Video

Video of Niagara Falls Canada’s newest attraction; the ice skating rink called the ‘Rink at the Brink’.

For further information you can visit the Winter Festival of Lights website.

Ice Skating at Niagara Falls

I have been lucky enough to enjoy skating the Rideau Canal in Ottawa, and the Rockefeller Center in New York.  This Winter I plan on ice skating just a few feet from Niagara Falls at the attraction dubbed “The Rink at the Brink”.  I can’t wait to see the view at night when the falls is lit up.

The attraction is very affordable. Admission, including skate rental, is $10 for adults and $8 for children. The prices are even cheaper if you bring your own skates.
