Lorenskog Travel Guide

Tourist Guide

The municipality of Lørenskog is centrally located near the capital and provides unique experiences both in the town and in nature.

Be prepared for an exciting holiday experience in Lørenskog. There is a great range of activities to do here, allowing you to choose just how active or relaxed you want your holiday to be. Regardless of your travelling companions, with such a wide variety of sights and activities on offer, you’ll be bound to find something to suit.

Lørenskog is situated in Akershus, immediately to the east of Oslo. Towards the end of the 20th century, the municipality went from being an agricultural municipality to one of Oslo's suburbs. You’ll find major shopping centres here, such as Triaden and Metro-senter. The Østmarka national park is situated in the south, which is perfect if you’re looking to escape the hustle and bustle of the northern parts of the municipality.

If you visit Lørenskog with children, make sure to the Megafun Factory, which has activities for children of all ages. If you want to see more of the area’s natural surroundings, head out on one of the many walking trails, or why not visit Mount Svartåsen, Lørenskog's highest peak? There is also an excellent golf course at Losby Gods if you fancy practising your swing.

Lørenskog is a small place, but it would be handy to hire a car if you’re thinking of exploring the area at your own pace. Take advantage of the opportunity to experience nature and make sure to pack a good pair of walking boots and some warm clothes. The major shopping centres offer the opportunity to indulge in a spot of retail therapy, meaning you can return home with a whole new wardrobe.

The nearest airport to Lørenskog is Oslo’s main international airport, Gardermoen Airport. From the airport, Lørenskog is only half an hour's drive away. The journey from central Oslo is also short, with trains taking around 15 minutes.

A holiday in Lørenskog will allow you to enjoy magnificent nature experiences and unique urban adventures. The close proximity to both nature and the big city make it an excellent holiday destination.
