Nice mix of forest and view - Not too far from the city but feels like real nature. I liked that we started near a lake and ended with a crazy good view. Trail was clean and not too crowded. Would do it again for sure.

Just the right amount of hiking - I’m not super sporty but this hike was perfect. A little challenge in parts, but mostly relaxed. Good guide, fun group, and that lefse snack was something new for me. Totally worth the time.

First hike in Norway, loved it! - I never hike back home, but this was a great intro. Not too hard, and the pace was nice. Felt proud reaching the top and seeing the whole city below. Loved the Norwegian snack too!

Just a quick metro ride and suddenly you're walking through forest trails. The view over the fjord was breathtaking. Group was small, unlike other tours I’ve been on.

Great for families with kids! - Went with my two kids (ages 7 and 10), and we had a blast.The trail was manageable and had a few fun rocky parts they loved. It felt like a real outdoor adventure, not too long and not too easy. Everyone slept well that night!
