Aker Brygge

Vibrant seafront scene

Stranden
Aker Brygge
Oslo 0250
Norway
+47 22 83 2680
http://www.akerbrygge.no

The old workshops belonging to Akers Mekaniske Verksted on the seafront beneath the town hall have been converted into what is, especially in the summer, one of Oslo's most popular shopping and nightlife areas. There are places to eat and shop, art galleries, theatres, an IMAX and a regular cinema. A walk along the waterfront is a great way to spend a fine summer afternoon. Take trams 10 or 15 or walk from Akershus fortress past a children's play area and numerous ice-cream stalls.

Frogner Stadion

Large outdoor ice rink Park & Idrett
Kingos gate 17C
Oslo 0457
Norway
+47 22 55 8994 Frogner Stadium has an outdoor ice rink only a two-minute walk from Majorstuen, and a tram and bus stop right outside. Follow the music, which you will hear from a distance... At the rink you can either do regular skating or play ice hockey or bandy. The middle of the rink is made of artificial ice and is therefore open from early autumn to late winter, regardless of the weather. If you do not have skates, you can hire them for a small fee. Frogner Stadium is located next to the tourist attraction Frognerparken (Vigelandsparken).
