Located just under 19km northwest of Oslo is the small town of Gol. The town has plenty for visitors to indulge in whatever time of year they arrive. Hiking and fishing are just some of the activities you can experience in summer as well as being able to enjoy the Skipark in the winter. Depending on how long you plan to stay in the area, hiring a car in Gol and taking the journey to Oslo is well worth it to experience the amazing food and activities the country's capital city has on offer.
One of the major attractions in Gol is the Gordarrike, which is a medieval park. As well as the Norse mythology theme the park is home to an idyllic hiking area, perfect for those who love to explore the great outdoors. The Storefjell Ski and Sledding Centre is a fun and family-friendly activity centre for the whole family and is a great place to spend the winter holidays. Vassfaret Bear Park in Flå is another place to visit while in the area and it is in easy reach if you choose to hire a car in Gol.
