Für ein echtes New Yorker Erlebnis bei kaltem Wetter gibt es nichts Besseres, als sich warm anzuziehen und auf die Eisbahn zu gehen.
There aren’t many places in the world as breathtakingly beautiful as New York City in the winter. Even if you’ve never been there yourself, you’ve probably seen the Big Apple turn into a winter wonderland on the big screen, in timeless classics such as Elf, When Harry Met Sally, or Home Alone 2: Lost in New York. (And let us be the first to tell you, it really is just as gorgeous as it seems on TV.) So, if you’re on the fence about taking a wintertime trip to the city that never sleeps, our advice is to take the plunge — plus, there’s plenty more to do during the winter in NYC than sightseeing.
Für ein echtes New Yorker Erlebnis bei kaltem Wetter gibt es nichts Besseres, als sich warm anzuziehen und auf die Eisbahn zu gehen. In der Stadt gibt es mehrere großartige Eislaufbahnen für alle Könnerstufen, ganz gleich, ob Sie zum ersten Mal ein Paar Schlittschuhe schnüren oder sich schnell aufwärmen wollen, bevor Sie für die New York Rangers trainieren. Außerdem sind die Eisbahnen in der Weihnachtszeit besonders festlich und der perfekte Ort, um Fotos zu machen und mit der ganzen Familie Spaß zu haben.
Lassen Sie uns also ohne Umschweife einige der besten Orte zum Schlittschuhlaufen in NYC im Winter kennen lernen.
Rockefeller Center
If there’s only one place you ice skate during your time in New York, this one is tough to beat. The Rink at Rockefeller Center officially opened in early November and is conveniently located at Rockefeller Plaza between 50th and 49th Streets. Enjoy some cold-weather fun under the world-famous Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree any day of the week from 9 a.m. to midnight by purchasing a ticket and reserving a time slot in advance. Guests are welcome to bring their skates, but if you don’t want to lug them around all day, you can rent them while you’re there.
Bryant Park
For those looking to enjoy some ice skating in the middle of a massive winter village, there’s no better place than the Bryant Park Ice Rink. The rink opens in late October and runs from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily. The best part? At Bryant Park, if you bring your skates, ice time is totally free — and you can reserve your skate time in advance. (You can also rent a pair of affordable skates while you’re there.) After you’ve worked up a sweat — and an appetite — be sure to explore the surrounding winter village, complete with a European-inspired open-air market, which features artisanal shops housed in custom-designed, “jewel box” kiosks. (Pro Tip: This is a great place to do some holiday shopping!)
Zentraler Park
Smack dab in the middle of Manhattan is Central Park, and besides beautiful scenery and the NYC skyline, there’s also an ice-skating rink! Wollman Rink at Central Park opens in late October, and you can view the schedule on their website. Guests can bring their skates or rent an affordable pair and a locker at the rink.
Winter Wonders from the Water with City Cruises
One of the coolest things to do while in New York City is to experience a casual evening out with stunning views from the Hudson and East Rivers on a delicious dining cruise. Enjoy a delicious chef-prepared buffet and skyline views of the Big Apple from the comfort of a luxurious yacht. Cruise along the waters while marveling at famed landmarks such as the Statue of Liberty, Empire State Building, Brooklyn Bridge, and One World Trade Center from cozy, climate-controlled interior spaces, or refreshing open-air roof decks. The spirits will be flowing with fully stocked bars, lively music, and fun-filled games for an unforgettable night.
