Oslo Harbour

This point of interest is available as audio on the tour: Visit Oslo, The Hill of Gods
Opposite the City Hall lies Oslo’s harbour, the departure point for ferries and countless boat excursions. Take a look at those elegant three-masted sailing ships and that statue of a diver, ready to leap into the water with his oxygen tanks! If you get the chance, don’t miss out on exploring the Oslo Fjord in more depth. These iconic fjords were shaped by retreating glaciers and rising seawater. As the glaciers receded, seawater filled the valleys. Norway is home to more than a thousand fjords, and they’ll likely be the highlights of your journey if you continue your trip around the country. Here in Oslo, there are endless ways to enjoy the fjord, including a 2-hour sightseeing cruise, brunch on a boat, renting a kayak or paddleboard, or joining a yoga class on an electric boat! Whatever your vibe is, you’re bound to find something that floats your boat.
