Really nice place, specially in the winter. Take the subway to Tøyen, bring a good cup of hot beverage, and find the Palm Glass House inside the park. Here you can keep warm and tropical whilst watching the snow crystals pass by outside.

Nice spot to start a walk by the river "Akerselva". Start at the area of Sagene, walk beside the river towards the foodcourt "Mathallen" in the direction of the Oslo fjord. Then you will pass the artistic area of Oslo, with cafées, art universities and the ballet school. Nearby you will reach the area "Grünerløkka" also called "Løkka". This is a vibrant urban district also known as Oslos hipster area.

Beach, a bit smaller than Huk, but close by. Also nice to take a evening trip here when its not to much people. You can buy a disposable grill, take the bicycle or the bus, and barbecue or share a nice bottle of wine? ...Close by is also a nudist beach for those who prefer the skinny dipping.

Sightseeing
Take the subway "1 Frogneseteren" to "Holmenkollen" and see the symbol of Oslo, the well known ski jump. You can take the elevator all the way to the top for a nice view of the city. If you like hiking, I recommend you to walk into the woods to the cabin "Ullevålseter" eat a traditional meal, hosted bye the family of a famous norwegian ski athlete. Then you can walk further to Sognsvann, a nice lake. Its a good get away on a sunny day. You can take the subway back home at Sognsvann.
