What to do while in Oslo
Oslo is known for a few prominent tourist attractions, so tick these off first. The Vigeland Sculpture Park contains over 650 unique sculptures. Alongside is Frogner Park with an extensive rose garden. Just outside you’ll find the Vigeland Museum. Then venture a bit further and drive the four miles in your hire car to the Bygdoy Peninsula where you’ll find the Viking Ship Museum and the Royal Manor, a working organic farm.
Winter 2026 in Oslo
It hardly needs to be said that it gets cold in Oslo in winter, so focus on indoor attractions. There’s the Munch Museum, which celebrates the life and works of Edvard Munch, arguably Norway’s most illustrious artist. It’s also a good time to visit the Royal Palace for a guided tour. Or you can drive south to Gamle Fredrikstad, with its well-preserved moats and forts from the 17th century. It’s just under 60 miles away from Oslo.
