Now i love Oslo even more.

[@fakenorwegian4743]

Pål, as someone who can speak, read, and write Norwegian, and has visited Norway more than 40 times, I loved this video. I have been to most of the spots you featured, but you educated me further and I learned about a couple places I have to visit the next time I am in Oslo. Norway has a unique, layered, and complex history and culture, and it's important to preserve and value it. I can see that you love your culture and it's refreshing to see.

[@norwaywithpal]

Thanks for your nice comment! I hope you'll enjoy a few of these places next time you are in town :)

[@greenbean9171]

i will go to Oslo nextweek and I will follow you. Thanks from Thailand

Great video! We've been to quite a few of these, but some of them, like the Vigeland Mausoleum and Vettakollen hike, were new to us, and we can't wait to experience them the next time we're in Oslo.

[@norwaywithpal]

Thanks! I think you'll enjoy those two next time you come

Thanks Pal for the easy going videos on Norway travels. Am planning a trip with my wife this winter to Oslo, Bergen, and the coastal cruise. Looking forward to check out the items you have shared 😁🤗😍

I went on a longer hike around that area last time I was in Oslo. Starting with a walk through Roseslottet, then wandering around and up for hours until I got to the Vettakollen view point, then on the way down I stopped at Sognsvann. Absolutely wonderful day!

[@norwaywithpal]

aha great! Roseslottet could have been another hidden gem I think :) And Sognsvann as well!

[@LukasKlein]

Loved this one! Would love you showing us other towns too! I'll be a tour guide in Ålesund from May, still working on my secret tipps hehe.

[@norwaywithpal]

Thanks! Would love to make more episodes from other places in Norway, but it is very time consuming and potentially costly to make these episodes so one step at a time :)

[@donburks4464]

thank for sharing really enjoyed does your tours involved some of this gems saving this to watch again

[@norwaywithpal]

Hi Don! Thanks for watching. Yes my tours can include all of these if we have the time

@@norwaywithpal may be coming but not sure in may for the festival ill full you form if i know for sure in the coming weeks what about the cost of the museum where can i book online think we be there for the whole week well contact you and set it up as soon as i know for certain

[@Kulumuli]

I lived in Oslo for 13 years and I've been at these places except for the Munch scream viewpoint and Vettakollen. I've been around Nordmarka and Østmarka on skis on bike and by foot. My 'secret' is not a place but about timing. In the summer I've often driven to Huk after work. at 17pm there are few people there but the water in the fjord is still nice and warm. It's a lovely place to go walking or jogging even if the temperature is low.

[@norwaywithpal]

Sounds like you have good memories of Oslo :)

[@jkoizoratravels]

more of hidden gems in oslo please! i have lived in oslo for the past 4 years and have visited a few of these spots. however, i am not nearly close of discovering oslo and this video evokes the urge to explore the city i live in. thanks for the great tips and history lessons!

[@norwaywithpal]

Thank you! I hope to have time to make some more hidden gems episodes :)

[@TIMWHY2]

Glad to see some Hotdog love! My favorite Dawgs here are Nathan's bun length. Insides and toppings, brown mustard & onions and on top beanless chili and coleslaw, so good!

[@norwaywithpal]

Sounds yummy!

[@Llum_edits]

Very interesting video!! We ll be in Oslo this august. I would go up to the hill with the views of th city anb the fiords

Looks like I have to go back to Oslo again!

[@norwaywithpal]

I think you should 😎

[@tanyakeller7048]

My wife and I are in Oslo today, we love your videos! Visit us in West Yellowstone sometime…..would love to show you around. Cheers! P.S. loved the hotdog segment😂

[@norwaywithpal]

Hey I hope you had a great stay in Oslo! Maybe I’ll see you in West Yellowstone some day :)

[@muzorewi]

I second the Emanuel Vigeland Mausoleum recommendation. It's a very sensory experience (the sound especially), not one that can be done justice with a video. Also, make sure you spend at least 30 minutes inside. It's dimly lit, but once your eyes adjust to the darkness the frescos come alive. In a sense it's as much of a meditation exercise as an art experience.

[@norwaywithpal]

Agree to that, it was incredible how much more visible the frescos became after a while

[@kolosapiensful]

fun fact: Emanuel Vigeland made the door smaler, so you'll have to bow for him (or the urn) when you're entering the room

[@norwaywithpal]

Aha, Thanks for that fun fact!

[@UTDAngelito]

Ayy this is perfect! I was planning on visiting Oslo sometime soon. Still currentlt saving money but also working out to lose weight so I can handle the hikes of Norway 😅😅

[@norwaywithpal]

hehe, well good luck, I hope you'll make it here some day soon!

[@kilipaki87oritahiti]

The hikes are great to get in shape and loose weight, so you don’t need to loose before coming here, but I understand if you do.

[@UTDAngelito]

@@kilipaki87oritahiti Oh thanks for letting me know! I still am gonna try to lose weight but it does feel good to know that at least!

My favourite Nordmann Pal is back! And he survives the winter

[@norwaywithpal]

Hehe yea barely, it was a long and cold 🥶 one

[@kilipaki87oritahiti]

As a Norwegian I didn’t even know that pølsebod was even a thing until watching these types of videos. I live in Oslo, and wouldn’t normally pay attention, but I was at the sofa company 2 weeks ago, and then looked across the street and saw that specific sausage/hotdog stand, and I was like: “omg there it is” and wondered how many of its customers were tourists🤣🤣🤣 I don’t like sausages so didn’t get any.

[@norwaywithpal]

You'd be surprised that most of the customers are locals :)

[@vinothkumar3490]

Hey pal show us places like lofoten and Å and tromsø... Love from India❤

[@norwaywithpal]

I hope to do that, but traveling up there to produce episodes takes a lot of time and money.

Norrøna should sponsor you to make a video! There's a store here in New York. You look great wearing their jacket 7:50

[@norwaywithpal]

Yea I think they should too! Someone should let them know ;)

[@RegulareoldNorseBoy]

I don't understand how tourist can enjoy Norway, when someone can hardly buy anything here, even with a full time job. I just bought 4 pounds of spuds and two small beers. almost $15 at the cheapest store. It's gotten so insanely expensive these last years

[@norwaywithpal]

It has gotten very expensive, but as I said my previous reply the NOK is very weak now, so for Americans for instance it's cheaper to come here than in a long time

[@magoyo8412]

[@twelvesmylimit]

What if Munch was trying to draw a Spaniel dog but was rubbish and everybody else thought it was a face, screaming so he just went along with it? 😂

[@norwaywithpal]

Haha yes perhaps he just saw a scared Spaniel running around up there 🤣

[@lulualvaradejo1411]

He pasado días increíbles en Oslo, espero regresar!!

[@Daisyflowers0501]

Just wondering, where's the warmest places/region in Norway? Especially during the winter

[@norwaywithpal]

I guess there are no warm places during the winter, but there are places that are less cold. Typically these are the coastal areas, from Bergen and further south towards the very south of Norway.

[@kilipaki87oritahiti]

Due to climate change and global warming summers are hotter and dryer, whilst winters are less cold, and more wet. Coastal and inlet villages, towns and cities are usually more mild than inland. But you have the cold winds that often make it seem more cold than it is. Tbh it’s not the cold that’s bad, but all the ice. Spikes are must haves here…

[@kilipaki87oritahiti]

And why go to a colder country especially during winter if you don’t like the cold? Makes no sense🫠

[@Daisyflowers0501]

@@kilipaki87oritahiti well I'm asking not because I hate it or want to avoid it. Just wondering you know

[@Sergiyovych]

Cmon man, Huldra is not a female troll and Munc view point is actually several meters higher, on the bridge.

[@norwaywithpal]

Huldra is often described as a tusse, it comes from old Norse þurs eller þuss, which means troll. So I think female troll is a fairly good description to the general public, but I can understand it might not be satisfactory to a Huldra expert such as you. Btw. Nobody really knows exactly where Munch (you forgot the H) actually stood/walked when he was struck with a sudden terror. But I think for a visitor to Oslo it’s nice to see the frame art work and read the description on the plaque which is there. Again, I understand this might not be satisfactory to a Munch expert like you ✌️

[@Actio83]

As someone who lived in Oslo and moved out, don’t fall for this propaganda piece. The only good spot to visit is syverkiosken but forget about driving anywhere, bring your life savings and pray to god that the terrible public transport system has charged their batteries. Yeah we use EL busses in negative 30 degrees, try to guess what the big story was last winter…
