The river Akerselva starts at Maridalsvannet – Oslo’s largest lake and a recommended starting point for the 8-kilometer hike along the course of the river.
Today Akerselva plays a valuable role as a “green lung”; a popular recreational area with green parks and luxuriant nature. Many of the old factory buildings along the river have been refurbished and now house cafés, galleries, offices and schools.
The nature trails along the river are great for hiking, biking or running. There are also nice spots to go for a swim, especially in the upper course of the river.
Walking from Lake Maridalsvannet to downtown Oslo takes about two hours, but we do recommend you take your time.

St. Hanshaugen is one of Oslo's largest parks, located just north of the city centre. This popular recreational area is great for walks, and from the top of the hill you have a nice view of Oslo.
St. Hanshaugen was originally a bare rock hill. In the 1840s the name St. Hanshaugen ("midsummer hill") came into use, as the hill was a popular place for midsummer celebrations. In 1936, an open-air café was built at Festplassen - the square on top of the hill - which is still a popular summer café today.
