GrunerlokkaStarting at Kulturkirken Jakob we will first move into the Grünerløkka district. You have probably heard that it is known for bars, restaurants, and independent shops, but I will also tell you about the area's really interesting history.
-
Here we will discover a very photogenic creative arts and music hub right by the river.
-
Vulkan NeighbourhoodAlong delightful paths, we will follow the river upstream to Vulkan, a model for green urban living, with cutting edge venues and Oslo’s best food hall.
-
DamstredetWe will then make your way along cobbled Damstredet with its charming, small, wooden houses from the early 19th century.
-
Our Saviour's Memorial CemeteryAt the top of the hill we will visit the Cemetery of the Saviour, a tranquil oasis in the heart of the city, where the final resting places of Edvard Munch and Henrik Ibsen can be found.
-
Moving along picturesque Telthusbakken, we will head back down towards the river.
-
We will then carry on up along the Akerselva river, and see how the river’s factories have been converted into design centres and art academies.
-
Akerselva RiverWe will stroll through the mist of urban waterfalls while we learn about the impact the Industrial Revolution had on Oslo, and the areas surrounding the river in particular.
-
If you like we will stop for tea, coffee or a delicious waffle (at your own cost) at Hønse-Lovisas house, a cute spot right on top of one of the waterfalls.
-
GrunerlokkaWe will then head back into the hustle and bustle of Grünerløkka. Weaving your way through numerous lesser known streets packed with history, we will pass award winning cafes, buzzing hangout spots, and I can point out my favorite cocktail bars and restaurants. Depending on your wishes, the tour will either finish at one of the tram stops in Grünerløkka or at Ankerbrua, close to where we started.
If it’s canceled due to poor weather, you’ll be offered a different date or a full refund.
