Tøyenbadet
Helgesens gate 90, 0550 Oslo, Norge 2 hours
When it's freezing outside, this is a great escape. The newly renovated pool has everything from regular lanes to hot tubs and slides. It’s bright and modern. A good way to warm up when the Oslo winter is at its worst.
Why it works
No screens or phones means you actually have to talk. Plus, a sauna makes everyone more relaxed.
What to order
Check the website for opening hours before you go, and make sure to hit the sauna. It's quietest early in the day.
Best time to go
Wintertime, preferably Sunday mornings.
What it costs
200–300 NOK for two
