Program and Highlights:

Our adventure begins at Jernbanetorget 1, Oslo Central Station. We're on a mission to swiftly escape the city center.
Following the path of the Akerselva River, we delve deeper into nature, making our way toward Maridalen.
Stops include Aamot Bridge, known for its unique history, and Mølla waterfall, where we'll explore the river's industrial past.
Frysja, which translates to 'frothy' in Old Norse, is our last urban stop before immersing ourselves in the Nordmarka forests.

We journey along gravel roads, reaching Hammeren, and ascend to Ullevålseter, the perfect midway point for coffee and buns. (Please note: Ullevålseter is closed on Mondays, so we may stop at Frognerseteren instead.)
The adventure continues uphill, granting us panoramic vistas over Nordmarka and Skjærsjøen before a thrilling downhill ride back to the city.
Short stops at Frognerseteren, Holmenkollen Kirke, and the Holmenkollen Ski Jump provide a taste of Oslo's iconic landmarks.

As we cycle through residential areas, we follow the old paths of the Malm industry carriers along Ankerveien.
A tranquil gravel track takes us through Mærradalen, followed by peaceful side streets leading to Skøyen.
From Skøyen, we trace the coastal cycle path, passing Frognerkilen, Aker Brygge, Akershus Festning, before returning to our starting point.
