Private Akerselva River Walk

Your tour starts at our tour center in central Oslo. After meeting your guide, you will hop on a train bound for Maridalen Lake. This lake is one of Oslo's main drinking water sources and also the headwaters of the Akerselva River. We begin next to the Technical Museum at Kjelsås, and wind through forested areas and colorful wooden houses, where you'll learn about the river’s natural and cultural significance.

Soon you will see a change in the landscape surrounding the river as we move into the industrial heart of the city. Here old factories harnessed the power of the Akerselva through dams, leaving beautiful waterfalls behind for us to enjoy. Just like much of the world, the Industrial Revolution completely changed Norway and nowhere in the city is it more evident than along the banks of the "Aker River" (Akerselva). Along the way, your guide will tell you about some of this history, as well as its impact on the river itself.
