korketrekkeren印象

The best toboggan place in Oslo. Sleighing down Korketrekkeren is free, but you might need to rent a sleigh. There are at least two places you can do that: Akeforeningen and Skiservice. Akeforeningen has more reasonable prices, but I've only used Skiservice and will probably continue to do so. Ask for Pick-up service when you rent your sleigh and you can drop it off at Midtstuen when going home. This will save you time and give you one last run.To get there, take line 1 to Frognerseteren (end station) and follow the crowd down hill to the right.Korketrekkeren is about 2km long and relatively steep with some good bends. When you get to the bottom, you simply take the metro/train back to the top from Midtstuen station). A full run Frognerseteren-Midtstuen-Frognerseteren takes about 20-30 minutes, depending on how fast and lucky you are.Check wind conditions and temperature and dress accordingly. It's colder up there than in downtown Oslo. Once you get there, you'll probably stay at least 5-6 hours and you will regret it if you're cold and wet within the first two.Korketrekkeren can be dangerous. People do crash into eachother, run over eachother, fall off or run off the track. Wearing a helmet is recommended. When the snow is fresh, the speed is slower, but as the snow gets packed and the temperature drops, you're pretty much on pure, hard ice. So, be careful. Still, Korketrekkeren is for kids and families as well as those who like speed. It's up to you how fast you want to go - though you should pick the conditions that suit you best (snow or ice).There's only one place to eat when up there and it's pricy, so bring your own food if you don't want to spend that much. It must be said that some of the food at the restaurant is really good.Also, be aware that sometimes (usually later in the day) even the metro/train cannot get all the way up to the top. This will result in the metro company setting up busses to take you from Holmenkollen to Frognerseteren - which will make your day less enjoyable. Most people give up at this point. There is however nothing you can do about this and few ways of knowing when it will occur so just take the chance.

No snow on the main slope so had to use alternative route. More walking up hills than sledging down and there were children doing it who were scared to death as there were edges you could go off. Didn't feel safe and gave up with it all. Also more expensive than the 100 NOK that it advertises . . . 135 NOK when u get up to the list price outside their door!

We don't ski, so the opportunity to sledge instead was great!You get a metro to the end of the line (about 30 mins from the centre), hire your sledge (just follows others to the rental lodge), slegle about 2km, then jump back on the metro to the top. So convenient. It might be worth getting there early (I think the rental place opened at 10am), before the snow gets too churned up and slushy which slows you down, however it was less busy later on, so depends what you're looking for...

Went there on two occasions during a 5 day trip to Oslo. Really good fun. On the second day there was a bit more ice under the track making it pretty fast, but I think the track is pretty full proof and if you go up one banking it sort of throws you back on. Take extra gloves and socks as wet hands and feet started to put our kids off of the trip. Also later in the day the track does get some quite considerable - snow speed bumps which either stop you in your tracks or launch you in the air.

We went down the Korketrekkeren with some company guys.It was so much fun to do, even though the speed can really add up and corners can be a bit scarey.The rush is awesome.Just provide warm clothes and go :)

It's free to use and the toboggan rental, if you didn't happen to pack one ;-), isn't too expensive. On the day we went there were icy patches which were alarming on the first run but great once you realised you weren't about to crash horribly. The toboggan shop offered helmets for the toboggans, because of the ice, and they came free if you wanted them. Coming from Britain I expected them to try to get another few Kr for these and was really pleasantly surprised. And after 2km of riding you get to ride the metro back to the top, with your metro day ticket.

You rent a sleigh/rodel at either Akeforeningen or Tom Murstad skiservice, the price is roughly NOK 150. The ride is about five minutes and at the end of the track you just take the tram back up to the start. You will love it, so make sure to have at least a couple of hours for the activity. Helmet, Snow googles and warm clothes is recommended and may be rented as well. Have Fun!

Great sleighing hill. if in oslo in wintertime, go here. There is one minus and thats the overcrowded slow tram that bring you to the top

We travelled to Norway to cross-country ski. Upon arriving in Oslo, we started plotting out ski trip and was told about this toboggan run by the hotel receptionist. Quickly forgot the skiing and headed out for this instead. I though we had a great toboggan hill where I grew up in Canada, but this one takes the cake. It's a 2-kilometre run, and instead of slogging your way back up the hill on foot, you hop on the metro to go back to the top. FUN!! Not a bad deal either that you can hire a sled with helmet for 100 NOK (roughly £9) all day. Go early in the day to get the best snow conditions. WEAR WATERPROOF TROUSERS.

All looks exciting when you go up there- problem was the directions given to go 100m past a brown building and turn right were pretty poor and with not one sign and once three people went down a track 70m in front of us which was right- we walked and followed and went down what we thought was the right track- again I note there were no signs. After following the people who by now long gone we went down some steep slopes and after going uphill it soon became clear we were on a ski slope with no signs and no clue where we were. It was pretty frightening as we were essentially stranded on the mountain and had to ask a bemused cross country skier and a local where the hell we were. Subsequently escaped through an exit gate and then lugged our sleighs 30 mins down a hill next to a road until we found the metro and went back up. We asked for refund but were bluntly refused- we just got told we should have turned right after 100m- how about get some signs as it could have been completely lethal! If it's busy then you may have more luck but it was a pretty dreadful experience which has put me off Toboggan's for life- it was dangerous and frightening in equal measure! Think twice before wasting your money!
