Oslo - SJ Norge

Located by the Oslofjord and surrounded by forests and mountains, Norway’s capital offers a unique combination of urban life and natural beauty.

Urban and vibrant

Bjørvika – with its characteristic Barcode – is an excellent example of modern and urban Oslo neighborhood. Vending towards the fjord, and right by the MUNCH museum, you will also find Oslo’s favorite bathing place, Oslobukta.

Bejeweled area

The West area in Oslo – which includes Majorstua and Bogstadveien – is perhaps Oslo’s most elegant and architecturally rich neighborhood. Majestetic estates and exclusive shops dominate areas such as Frogner and Bygdøy Allé.

Oslo also has a diverse food culture not many other Norwegian cities have. From gourmet restaurants for the most select taste buds, to places suitable for families with children, Oslo has something for everyone!

A walk in the park

West in Oslo lays the lovely Frogner park which also houses the Froger bath, the City Museum (Bymuseet), the Frogner stadion and the perhaps most known Vigelands park, with its recognizable sculptures in granitt, bronze and wrought iron. The over 200 sculptures are part of Gustav Vigeland’s life work and one of Oslo’s most renowned tourist attractions.

Wine & dine

Oslo’s night life is effervescent and diverse. Candle light dinners, impressive wine menus and meals made of locally sourced and seasonal ingredients dominate the most exclusive dinning. You will also fine a more relaxed and informal setting in other restaurants, while not losing focus from the tasty flavours and meal quality.

Inner peace and well-being

Let yourself be tempted by an oasis of inner peace at KOK Oslo or find balance in the sauna at SALT or Oslo Fjord Sauna.
