Hi!
Your options are dependent on what kind of wintersports you would like to do and how much time and money you have to spend. In the Oslo area Holmenkollen offers both crosscountry skiing opportunities as well as slalom and snowboarding slopes at Tryvann Skisenter. Not to far away - about one hour to an hour and a half of driving a car or bus - you have Norefjell which offers the same in a more countryside fashion were you can rent a cabin or a hotelroom for the weekend or in the mid of the week if you're not working.
Further away from Oslo in Hemsedal, Trysil, Beito and more - you have full fledged mountain resorts with big networks of prepared skitracks for crosscountry skiing and good slalom and snowboard facilities with many lifts and slopes. Hemsedal is more of the partyresort kind while Trysil and Beito are more of a mix of familyresort and party.

Frognerseteren is a very beautiful place not far at all from the centre of Oslo. Just get the subway and get loose and free - hike, bike, walk, climb... do whatever you want! Enjoy the nature : that is and has always been the norwegian motto! Leave a Comment Theme: HikingDirections: Take subway n.1 towards Frognerseteren

 Oslo ski jump by William1982Leave a Comment Theme: Skiing/Snowboarding

Ski jump is almost as popular in Norway as in Finland. The amazing part that here in Oslo it is really in the outskirt of the city. It is worth to come and visit this area even just for the view or the nature around here. Leave a Comment

You have to start sometime. We were amazed to see this small child learning to ice skate with the use of what looked like an old milk bottle crate as support!! He was a lot steadier than either of us would have been, thats no joke! Leave a Comment Theme: OtherAddress: Near The Sculpture ParkDirections: Outside of the Sculpture Park
