Himkok may not have the most beautiful view, but there is probably no one in Oslo who can beat this place when it comes to beverages. The onsite distillery brews aquavit, gin and vodka, which are combined with root Norwegian ingredients to create a unique Nordic drinking experience. The concept and quality have given the bar international recognition in the form of 42nd place on the prestigious "The World's 50 Best Bars" list.

In the large, stylish premises behind the anonymous door at Youngsgate 2, NM-winning bartenders serve cocktails based on their own craft spirits, as well as other alcoholic beverages from carefully selected Scandinavian suppliers, including premium quality beer.

Hovedøya is the innermost of the islands in the Oslo Fjord, municipally owned and protected, with historical ruins and idyllic nature. It is only eight minutes by boat from the mainland, with a good boat connection from Rådhusbrygge 4, and is thus a quick and easy destination for a short excursion.

The local climate and soil provide an exceptionally rich and varied flora that helps create an idyllic and scenic landscape. Central to the island are the ruins of a monastery, founded in 1147 by British monks. Only the walls remain, but they have a historical buzz about them and are fun to explore and play hide and seek in. The island also has a cannon battery and other military historical facilities - as well as a nice beach in the far south.

Lindøya is one of the large islands in the inner Oslo Fjord, half of which consists of a cabin field and half with a nature reserve, with a rich plant and animal life. There are two piers with a boat connection to the mainland, one on the east side and one on the west side, and the boat trip takes just under 20 minutes.

A network of paths and roads makes it easy to explore the island. In addition to the small forest, the island also has the occasional bathing spot (unfortunately not very suitable for small children), a simple public bathroom, a small shop that is open during the summer season and plenty of cabins - more than on any of the other islands in the Oslo Fjord.

Cycling through Stavanger is the perfect way to explore the city - whether you want to see the city itself or the surrounding neighborhoods. If you don't have your own bike, just use the electric city bikes. There are plenty of charging stations throughout the city, so getting from A to B is very straightforward.

Sightseeing by bike is particularly practical. Not only do you get to experience the city while cycling, but you get to take in each attraction step by step, through the old, pretty parts of the city and along the water by the harbor.

Kolsås ski center is located at the back of the popular and clearly distinctive peak that dominates the horizon when you look toward Bærum from Oslo. Getting to the ski center is easy, and well worth the effort.

Once there, you can choose between three different slopes, two of which are specially adapted for little ones. The main slope has a double lift on one side, but you can choose the degree of difficulty depending on where on the slope you want to ski. Remember to stop by the cozy pitstop café to sample the popular coffee and toddy!

Torvet is the main square in Trondheim and the heart of the city, and after a major renovation, it has been given a look and a design that lives up to the status of the city's foremost meeting place. The first impression of Torvet is that of a simple, large and open space with gray stone slabs, but car-free surroundings, discreet planting, a universal design and people of all ages create a pleasant setting around the magnificent statue of the city's founder Olav Tryggvason in the middle.

As the winner of the Landscape Architecture Prize 2020, it is clear that the place has great qualities, not least as an inviting place to stop, with plenty of plenty of good seating. Look out for the beautiful patterns and sculptures in the slate slabs and benches.

As the country's second largest city, Bergen naturally has most things you could want in life - within just a short distance from the city centre. The city boasts a number of different spas, but the most discerning choose the very best treatments.

Spa Bergen in Sandviken is one of the city's most exclusive spas and is specially adapted for women. This means that you can feel completely safe when you spend the day here, and also rest assured that you are going to get great service and that the therapists know what you need.

With its two exhibition venues, Trondheim Art Museum, also known as TKM, really has a lot to offer. The Bispegata venue is the main museum and is located by Nidaros Cathedral, while Gråmølna is located on Solsiden. Both venues are centrally located and are therefore easy to get to.

The museum features a large collection of Norwegian art, including several well-known works. In addition to the musuem's own collection, you can look forward to taking a closer look at both international art and contemporary art. You can also join guided tours, courses and events, while the Sunday family events are particularly popular with young artists in the family.

The Christmas market on Torvet in Trondheim has become a tradition for many Trondheim residents. It's easy to see why because here you can experience both winter magic and a real Christmas atmosphere. In fact, people come here from all over the country to experience the special atmosphere.

The many stalls sell everything from high-quality handicraft products to local foods produced from the best ingredients, and if you're looking for original Christmas gifts, the chances are high that you will find them here. When darkness falls and the Christmas lights sparkle, the atmosphere becomes almost magical, and it is easy to see why this traditional market is so popular.
