Visit the Holmenkollen Ski Jump in Oslo
ฝัง

- On the outskirts of Oslo city just on the border to the forest, one finds the Holmenkollen National Ski Arena. This area houses the Holmenkollen ski jumping hill, a cross country and biathlon skiing arena. There is also a roller skiing track for use in the summer season.
Did you know the wild theory that Norwegians are born with skis on? After exploring the ski jump I head into the ski museum to find out more about skiing in Norway. Then it's up to the top of the ski jumping tower. After enjoying the amazing view, it's either the elevator down again, or a Zipline know as "Kollensvevet".
Make sure to check out Holmenkollen and the Ski Museum next time you are in Oslo!

Footage from the Ski Museum in Oslo

hi, it's very impressive! thank you
Thanks a lot!
great video! Tusen takk from lOS aNGELES
Thanks for watching!
Come on Pål. Next time I come to Oslo, you need to do the zip line with me!
Deal! But will have to be upside down..:D
Interesting Oslo site with wonderful views. Professional video production.
Thanks Jack :)
Love these Pal!!
Tusen takk Georgia! :)
This is a really, really great video. I went to see Holmenkollen a few days ago, but my footage and photos are pretty dismal compared to this. As an expat Norwegian in London, this is a phenomenal introduction to Holmenkollen and a few Norwegian idiosyncracies (god help us). Much kudos.
Tusen takk Per! That is really Nice to hear :) Glad you got to see Holmenkollen in person
Wow! I wouldn't mind doing the zip line, but not upside down! Great video of a favorite sport of Norwegians.
haha I think I would skip upside down as well
Another great video! I took the tram up and did all the things you showed here, including the zip line! And you are correct, the views from the top are beautiful in every direction. Thanks again for bringing back great memories. Stay healthy.
I'm glad you got to experience that Barry! Thanks for your comment :)
Best video yet, Pål! View from the top was spectacular.
Many thanks Mike! It's been the most time consuming one so far, but very enjoyable to make :)
Great memories from our trip with you, Pål! We LOVED the zip line experience there.
Thank you Damon! Glad you got to try it out :)
Great video Pål! Thanks. I visited Holmenkollen in 2018 and really miss it.
Thank you Seeking Snow, I love going up to Holmenkollen, its such an impressive structure
This was great Pål! We didn't make it up to Holmenkollen on our visit to Oslo but now I feel like we did. Maybe the zip line will be in a future TH-cam adventure? :)
Thank you Scott! It might... let me know next time you are in Oslo and we can go up there together... and do the zipline :D
Wow. That is an amazing place. I had no idea so many people watched ski jumping.
It's a very popular sport here!
Ok...this might be my favorite video yet! Great job with showing the history along with some humor. I still think you should have taken the scenic way down. :)
Thank you Sarah! I'm saving the zipline for another time ;)
Great video Pål. We didn't see the ski jumping area when we were in Oslo a couple of years ago. Thought you were going to roller ski down the hill. Now that would have been a great end to your video.
hehehe that would have been the end to me also
Wow. Wonderful video Pal. Planning oslo trip in June. Can you please guide how much walk would it be from train station to ski jump area as we have a couple of elderly people with us. And also are there cabs available which can take directly to ski area from downtown..thanks a lot.
Hei Dave, thanks for watching the episode. There are for sure cabs that will take you up there.
To walk up to the part where you face the ski jumping hill is about 800 meter (0,5 miles) from the metro station. In the beginning there is a bit of a steep incline. For someone who are not good at walking or easily gets tired it might be too much. Hard to say really. I guess if you are not in a rush you can go easy. I hope that helped
Great video. The next time I’m in Oslo you must join me on the zip line!
For sure!! But it will have to be upside down
