Oslo Any flights summary:

The main airport serving Oslo is Gardemoen international (OSL), which is just over 30 miles north of the city centre. Although this newly built facility is further away from the city it serves than many other European hubs, a fast and regular train service makes transfers to the central Oslo, and various other towns and ski resorts in the region, a relatively easy process. Alternatively, Oslo Torp airport (TRF) is one of Europe's most distant secondary airports, being situated about 80 miles to the southwest of Oslo.

Oslo Any in a nutshell:

The smallest and most homely of Scandinavia’s capitals, much of Oslo’s appeal stems from it’s access to the great outdoors.

Mini Guide to Oslo Any

Oslo is a city of contrasts: it is the oldest capital city in Scandinavia, but has only known by its current name since 1925, it is a magical winter wonderland and a fun-loving summer paradise, a business centre with a relaxed atmosphere, small yet cosmopolitan.

Spread around its very own fjord, the first thing that strikes visitors to Oslo is its charming natural setting. And despite the deep chill of the long winters here, this is an enjoyable environment at any time of the year: the islands of the archipelago, the Holmenkollen ski jump and surrounding forest, and the hilly Nordmarka area are all popular local options for outdoor pursuits.
In contrast, the heart of the city is a place of grand buildings, open spaces and stately gardens, with the sweeping Karl Johans Gate boulevard linking the royal palace, parliament and university.

Even the most worldly culture vultures would find it hard not to be impressed by the huge selection of museums dotted across the city – including the picturesque Bygdøy peninsula, where Norway’s maritime history is showcased by the remarkable Viking Ships Museum, as well as the Kon-Tiki and Fram Museums. Art buffs, too, will be more than satisfied by the extensive Munch Museum, where several versions of the Norwegian artist’s famous painting ‘The Scream’ are held, not to mention the National Gallery and Museums of Contemporary and Applied Art. The free outdoor sculpture park of Vigelandsparken is also not to be missed, particularly when it is covered in pristine snow.

If you’re planning to make the most of the city’s cultural offerings then the Oslo card, which gives free entry to most museums plus unlimited use of public transport and other discounts, is a must. Eating and drinking in Oslo, and Norway in general, can burn a sizeable hole in your wallet – start saving!
