Sobre este Tip
Vettakollen is a rocky hilltop in Nordmarka that looks south over the city, Holmenkollen and the Oslofjord. Reach the trailhead by metro line 1 and walk up on the short route. Weekends fill up with locals, so a weekday visit is calmer, and the summit is exposed enough to justify a jacket. Bring snacks and a thermos for the top, and plan for the fjord light in the late afternoon.
