Did you know?
In Norway we love to gå på tur - to go for a hike! When we meet someone on the hiking trail we greet each other: "Hei! God tur!" which means "Hey, have a nice walk!"
Meeting point
All our hiking tours in Oslo start next to the Tiger statue in front of the Oslo Visitor Centre. It is located at Jernbanetorget, right in the central Oslo.
Most buses, subways, trams and trains stop at Jernbanetorget.

A little history
Oslo city is surrounded by green forests. You need to take just one train ride to step into the wilderness. Local people are using public transportation to get to the most beautiful places. Usually, it doesn't take longer than 15 to 20 minutes - and you are in the heart of the green forest.
And the adventure begins! Nowadays Norwegians call subway T-bane, but in the past, we called it trikk.
On this picture you see King Olav V showing his ticket for trikken to the inspector. Do you see the skiing poles around? The King is probably on his way to gå på tur.
