Ice skating beneath the Brooklyn Bridge with the Manhattan skyline in view: Roebling Rink brings a winter outing to one of Brooklyn’s most memorable waterfront settings.
What to expect
Here, you skate right beneath the Brooklyn Bridge. Roebling Rink sits on Emily Warren Roebling Plaza in Brooklyn Bridge Park, with the bridge overhead, the waterfront beside you, and Manhattan across the river.
Admission is $20 for visitors with skate rental costing an additional $12. NYC residents pay $16 for admission and $8 for skate rental. These prices include taxes and fees.
Good to know
- Wear warm layers and bring gloves. The wind along the waterfront can make it feel much colder.
