Emanuel Vigelands Museum


Small but impressive, hidden in a residential area
Grimelundsveien 8
Oslo 0775
Norway
+47 22 14 5788
http://www.emanuelvigeland.mus...
The former studio of sculptor Gustav Vigeland's lesser-known brother, Emanuel, is now a combined museum and mausoleum (!). The windowless, church-like room plays tricks on your eyes when you enter, but after a few minutes an impressive mural covering the walls and ceiling will appear.

Sognsvann


Popular lake and hiking area
Sognsveien
Oslo 0863
Norway
Lake Sognsvann and its surrounding countryside make one of the most popular choices for a city-dweller's day out, both in summer and winter. During the hottest months, the lake is excellent for swimming and sun-bathing, and when the lake freezes over later in the year, it becomes a huge, natural ice rink, popular with skaters of all ages. Sognsvann is the terminus for the Sognsvann branch of the underground, so it is very easy to get to whether you come from the city centre or from Majorstuen. Marked trails take you straight into the woods, with a variety of alternatives for short and long walks. In the winter, the same paths, now snow-covered, are used for cross-country skiing.
