Fargo Favorites: Top Winter Activities

If you have lived in the Fargo area for some time now you know that winter can sometimes feel like it is never going to end. Often people get bored during this snowy season and begin to wish for warmer weather and longer days. It is important to remember though that although winter can be frustrating, it offers us many activities that we cannot enjoy, or do not appreciate in other seasons. Here is a list of 6 winter activities that will get you out of the house and have you enjoying what Fargo has to offer!

1. Downtown on Ice

This outdoor ice rink is one of Fargo’s newest rinks that the whole family can enjoy. The rink is located at 501 Main Ave and is open from December 20th– February 28th. There is also a warming house on site with hours from 4pm-9pm weekdays and 12pm-8pm on weekends. Check out the Fargo Park Districts website for the locations of more outdoor rinks!

If you are a resident of any of our Moorhead properties, be sure to check out the outdoor ice rink located at Stonemill Pond!
