What To Expect
Oslo is a small but spectacular city which is surrounded by a huge forest accessible to meeting points a short and simple distance from the city center where the best snow pack is located. Noteworthy points;
-- Our public transportation, partially above ground subway, brings you directly to the forest from the central station with no switching.
-- The subway train is a tour in itself, meandering up the mountain through the famous Norwegian Holmenkollen neighborhood where you are suddenly above the city in a winter wonderland not experienced centrally.
-- Very few cities in the world can offer these types of experiences in under an hour's travel time - it is really what makes Oslo unique.
From Oslo Central station the subway, marked with a blue T, guests will take the Line 1 westbound marked Frognerseteren where they will be met by the guide. The tour starts and ends at Frognersetern station.
Please note that this tour requires a minimum of 3 participants and can be rescheduled or cancelled with fewer.
