Bike ride through Kampen and Vålerenga
Sons gate 3A, 0654 Oslo, Norge 2 h 30 min
Grab a city bike and roll through the old wooden house streets at Kampen and Vålerenga. It feels like a tiny village right in the city. Stop by Kampen Park for the view, or just cruise past the colorful houses. There are plenty of spots to take a break if your legs get tired.
Why it works
You get to see a lot without walking for hours, and there's never awkward silence when you're on the move.
What to order
Swing by Farine for a coffee and see if they have any fresh pastries.
Best time to go
A sunny day between spring and autumn.
What it costs
From 60 NOK (for two city bike passes)
