Linderud Manor and Park
Trondheimsveien 319, 0593 Oslo, Norge 1 hour
This is arguably one of Oslo's best-kept secrets. You can wander between ancient apple trees and mirror-like ponds surrounding a grand white manor that feels miles away from the city noise. The park is open to everyone and ideal for a quiet stroll where the conversation can flow naturally. It feels like visiting a private 18th-century estate garden.

Bring a seating pad and a thermos of coffee, and find a spot under the large deciduous trees in the park.
