Maridalsvannet, or Lake Maridal, is the largest lake in Oslo, and serves as the main drinking water supply for the city. The lake carries its clear waters via the river Akerselva to the Oslo fjord.
The trip starts outside Oslo Visitor Centre at Jernbanetorget in Oslo city centre. We will then take the Vy train to Snippen station.
This is a great train ride so don't forget to take pictures! We will hike up to the tall hill where some simple climbing is required. The view from this hill is breathtaking! You will see the most of Oslo, the Oslo fjord and a large part of Oslo´s surroundings. We will then stroll down to the great lake Maridalsvannet and finish our trip where we started at Jernbanetorget.
