Holmenkollen Ski Jump




The Holmenkollen Ski Jump can be seen from almost anywhere in Oslo.  However, it is located about a 40 minute train ride from the center of the city.  Once you get off at the train stop for it, you'll also need to make a 20 minute walk, mostly uphill, to get to it.  That train ride and uphill hike are well worth it.  From the top, you'll get a gorgeous view of Oslo and the Oslofjord.  You'll get a great vantage point showing you how the ski jump athletes would head down the jump.  We'd highly recommend this trip, and it is free with the Oslo Pass.
