kurt:... A walk in the park... and a little bit further. From the center of the city, Vaterland Park, follow the Akerselva river to the Maridalsvannet lake.The riverwalk is eight kilometres long, and ... takes you via forested areas, historical buildings, fishing and swimming spots and several waterfalls. The highest waterfall is next to Hønse-Lovisas hus and the Beier bridge. You'll pass cosy "hippy and art" places, the Norwegian Business School Campus and the Technology museum to arrive at the lake. On the way back " jump in" at Nydalen Bryggeri & Spiseri, a typical Scandinavian bar, for a coffee, a "weisbrau" or a delicious meal, especially for vegetarians.
