Riverfront Park's Numerica Skate Ribbon consists of a 16' wide and 650' long pathway with a 3,500-square-foot attached pond. Skaters can experience slight inclines and declines as they make their way around a path of ice surrounded by beautiful Northwest-inspired landscape. Complementing the Numerica Skate Ribbon are large, cozy fire pits for spectators and skaters alike to sit around and enjoy a cup of hot cocoa. The Numerica Skate Ribbon shares a ticketing facility with the Numerica SkyRide that includes The Bearded Ginger with a variety of delicious food and large windowed dining area.
