Itinerary description

My first sharing on Wikiloc. This route takes you from the Holmenkollen metro station to SognsVann metro station. Apologies for a couple of wrong ways I took.

It's half and half on easy off-road paths and a few more mountain-like paths. Remember there's almost always an easy alternative to the mountains path I choose, they're clearly visible on a app like Kmoot. It isn't particulary difficult but since it's quite long, it's not for everyone.

I've done it in late June.

Let me know what you tink about it in the comments if you decide to do it.

    Very good route, some really good scenery. I did it in November so ground was frozen.

    Excellent route. Easy to follow with your indications

    It is worth to do it. The views are amazing.

    It is long but not difficult.
