A great way to start or finish a round at Maridalen on the eastern shore of Maridalsvannet. Finest gravel road, crisp up and down - and this view, which inspires me every time again.

August 16, 2025,Wieder mal vom Bogstad Camping zum Norsk Folkemuseet - diesmal über Holmenkollen, Voksenkollen und um den Maridalsvannet

With a quick lap around the cross-country ski trails, yes, in the right direction – and be careful, the summer skiers aren't exactly skiing slowly around you, even on the road and uphill ;)
