Forest snow tour - Had a brilliant few hours. Patricia our tour guide was lovely, helpful and very knowledgeable on our journey. Loved the experience of walking in the snow with our snowshoes and poles.

Nice winter walk! - Very nice hiking experience through a nice winter landscape and with great views over Oslo with a very friendly and knowledgeable tour guide! The spikes provided by the guide were easy to put on and made walking on ice and snow feel easy and safe. Speed and terrain are suitable for beginners or families with children, too. Food and drinks provided by Oslo hiking were delicious, too!

Amazing Views and Nature Just Outside City Centre - We really enjoyed the 4 hour winter walk tour. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable and friendly, helping us to better understand local culture while exploring the amazing nature just outside of Oslo City Centre. My only recommendation would be to offer this tour with varying levels of difficulty, as we would have liked a bit more strenuous hike, but didn't have the knowledge to go ourselves.

Fantastic the snow was superb - It was much more than what I was expecting. So much snow every view looked outstanding. I would have loved to spend a night up in the cabin

A pleasant walk through the mountains with views of the entire city. - A very pleasant walk through the snowy mountain of Oslo where we could enjoy nature and great views of the city. The best thing about the tour was without a doubt the guide, Moustapha, he not only made the tour fun and entertaining, he also gave us many tips and recommendations. We did the tour in winter and everything was snowy and beautiful, for our part, as we are young, we would have continued 1 or 2 more hours on the route but overall a very good experience. Very suitable difficulty for children and adults, but I would not recommend it for older people if they do not have experience, there may be ice and slippery areas.
