Friluftshuset: outdoor activity centre

Activity and information centre run by the Oslo chapter of DNT – The Norwegian Trekking Association.
Friluftshuset has a bouldering wall and kayaks for rent, and offers bouldering courses, kayak classes, inspirational evenings, outdoor activity suggestions and a shop with hiking and kayaking equipment.

Kayaking
Friluftshuset offers kayak rental and kayak tours for all ages throughout the summer season. DNT also has kayaks for rent and kayak lessons at Langøyenem an island in the Oslo Fjord.

Bouldering
Friluftshuset has a bouldering wall where beginners and experienced climbers can borrow a pair of climbing shoes and challenge themselves. Bouldering is climbing without a rope, and if you fall, you land on a thick mattress. The bouldering wall is open for drop-in most of the time, and there are bouldering classes, family climbing sessions and climbing days for children.

Outdoor activity centre and shop
At Friluftshuset you can get good suggestions for outdoor activities on the Oslo Fjord, in town and in the forests around Oslo. In the shop you can buy maps, clothing and equipment for hiking and kayaking.

Room rental and group activities
Friluftshuset may be rented by groups, and DNT can organise fun activities for kindergartens, schools and businesses.
