Top Active Leisure Sport in Oslo

Check their social media for any events or live music nights before you go. I went spontaneously and missed out on a live band that would have made the night even more fun!

If you want a spot to play billiards, try to get there early, around 4 PM. It gets super crowded later at night and you might miss out on a table?

I recommend getting the Oslo Pass if you plan on exploring more than just the camping. It saved me a ton on local attractions and transport! Plus, it's super handy for getting discounts everywhere.

My advice is to try their happy hour deals on drinks, which usually run from 4 PM to 7 PM. We snagged some awesome cocktails at half price!

I think the food prices are a bit high, so maybe consider eating somewhere else first if you want to save some cash. We made that mistake and spent more than we wanted to!

There are quite a few charming cafes and spots to grab a bite, but my advice is to check out the food at the Aker Brygge area for fresh seafood – it's a bit pricey but totally worth it!

Be mindful of the ferry schedules if you want to hop over to the islands. It's very easy to lose track of time, and I missed my ferry by just a few minutes – total bummer!

Watch the weather closely before heading out. It can change quickly in Oslo, and being unprepared left me a bit soggy on my visit. A light, waterproof jacket is a good idea!

If you're into yachting, try to visit on a weekday. The weekend crowds can get pretty heavy, and you’ll have a better chance of snagging a good spot to watch the boats come in and out.

Check the weather beforehand! I went on a cloudy day and missed the sunshine. Sunny days really enhance the vibe at Sorenga.

I suggest bringing your own snacks and drinks. The café can be a bit pricey, and it’s nice to enjoy your own stuff by the water.

If you're looking for a chill spot, head to the far end of the swimming area. It's usually quieter there, and you can enjoy a peaceful swim away from the noise.

Don't forget your towel. I made the mistake of leaving mine behind, and the rentals they offer are not the greatest quality

For first-timers I'd recommend going for the beginner rider session at 1 PM. The instructors are super patient and you get more attention during that slot.

My advice is to wear layers. The weather can be unpredictable in Oslo, and you'll want to be comfortable whether you're riding or just hanging around the farm.

Make sure to dress in layers and bring a spare pair of gloves. I got super cold after my gloves got wet and it became a real downer.

If you're new to parkour, look for beginner-friendly tutorials online before your visit. I wish I had watched a few videos to pick up some basics—it would have made it so much more fun.

Try to visit on a weekday around 10 AM when it's less crowded. I went on the weekend and it was packed, making it tough to find space to practice some moves

Check the weather before you go! I visited on a rainy day and the surfaces were slippery which made things tricky. A dry day would totally enhance your experience.

I suggest trying their finger food menu while playing billiards... It was delish and not too pricey... Best combo with drinks!

You gotta check out their happy hour from 4 PM to 6 PM! I think you'll really get your moneys worth and it sets a nice start to the night
