Country: Norway
Duration:
03:30 hours
Description
Experience the magic of a snowy forest at night on a guided torchlight walk. Warm up with a hot drink and roast marshmallows by a cozy campfire.
Imagine strolling quietly through the forest, where the snow sparkles like fresh cut gems as the light from the moon and the torches reflects off of the nature around you.
Start your tour in the city center where your guide will meet you at the Tiger Statue at Jernbanetorget, just outside the Oslo Visitor's Center at Oslo Central Station. From here, hop on the metro and travel through quaint neighborhoods as you make your way to Frognerseteren Station, which sits at about 500 meters above the fjord.
After a few moments to soak in the city lights from above, head off into the night. Take a short walk over to the frozen Øvresetertjern Lake where you will get equipped with your own hand-held flame torch and after a short safety briefing, hit the trail.
Along the way, your guide will tell you some information about the area, allowing plenty of time for picture stops. The walk will last about 45 minutes and will end next to the frozen lake where you will enjoy a cozy campfire, Norwegian style.
Around the fire, enjoy some hot drinks, good conversation, roast marshmallows and watch the flames dance off the snow and ice as you have a moment of what Scandinavians like to call "hygge". After some time, safely put out the fire and head to the metro and back to civilization.
