Oslo - Travel
Travelling in Norway offers a variety of scenery and experiences, all depending on what you are interested in. In general, be prepared for a sporty lifestyle and spending more time outdoors than maybe you would in many other countries. You need to be practical in your approach (with appropriate clothing and equipment) and be prepared for a climate with great and sudden changes - cold winters and mild summers - and a dramatic change of seasons.
