On of the things I Iove the most about our capital is the easy accessable forests near by Oslo. Oslomarka is a part of the larger area called Nordmarka. Oslomarka is suitable for skiing during the winter and hiking during summer - or you just take a walk. You can also visit the Holmenkollen skijump. Easy acess from my appartment.
