Hipstoric Grünerløkka - Private Bike Tour

Historical and hipster combined? Hipstoric! Synonyms with the district Grünerløkka, explore the cool side of Oslo. From famous Norwegian artists to colourful street art, join us for our Hipstoric Grünerløkka Private Bike Tour!

The story about the tour

Have you heard of Grünerløkka? If not, you’re about to! In a few words, it’s a neighbourhood where you find a remarkable food hall, plenty of restaurants and bars, original design shops, and, to top it off, a river and waterfall run straight through it. We couldn’t think of a better way to discover Oslo’s bohemian soul than by bike on our Hipstoric Grünerløkka Private Bike Tour. Are you game!? 

Starting in the city centre, we make our way past the famous Oslo Opera House, stopping for a photo, of course, savouring the view of the Oslo Fjord as we travel along the Oslo Harbour. Suddenly a stream, burbling as it moves along its bed, bubbling over rocks and branches, appears; it’s the start of the Akerselva River. Aiming for its most impressive waterfall, we ride along the river, surrounded by old industrial buildings, colourful urban housing and recreational areas what’s not to love? 

Coming back down again, we happen upon a giant chandelier at Blå, a super-popular food hall at Vulkan, and the charming collections of old wooden houses from the 1800s at Telthusbakken and Damstredet. We’ll leave our bikes, so get your camera out; you’ll want a photo of the picturesque hillside houses and gardens. Next up is Our Saviour’s Cemetery, where we’ll say hello to none other than Edvard Munch, Ibsen and Bjørnson. Don’t know who the last person is? Not to worry, we’ll fill you in! 

Pretty soon, we’ll be back at the starting point. Of course, we’ll have made a stop at Mathallen, the food hall, to stretch our legs and grab a snack (not included) during our tour. Hopefully, by now, you’ll have fallen in love with what we like to describe as Oslo’s hipster mecca, Grünerløkka.

    Happy Nobel Day! 💡 As Nobel Week was cancelled in 2020, Nobel lectures, prizes and banquets were replaced with Nobel Week Lights - light installations inspired by Nobel Prize-awarded findings and laureates. As the festivities are now back, we sure hope that we are so lucky that the artwork brightening up the city during the darkest month of the year; is a December tradition that has come to stay. 💫

🇸🇪 
Nobeldagen är här! 💡 Nobelveckan blev inställd 2020, och istället för Nobelföreläsningar, prisutdelning och bankett genomfördes Nobel Week Lights som är ljusinstallationer inspirerade av Nobelpris på olika platser i Stockholm. Det blev så uppskattat att det genomförs i år igen trots att Nobelveckan är återinförd. Har vi tur så är det en decembertradition som kommit för att stanna. 💫

    It’s a contested issue amongst numerous Baltic connected countries as to who invented the Ice-skate. Was it the Finns or the Dutch? All of this is irrelevant because the best city to ice-skate in is Stockholm. If you want to show off your Quadruple Axel in front of the masses, the ice-rink in Kungsträdgården is the perfect location. ✨⛸️✨

    Don't let its controversy cloud your curiosity as Christianshavns characteristic slanting roofs and canals, as well as the tremendous Church of Our Saviour, are well worth seeing. Not to forget the Færgecafé or Café Parterre who are both worth visiting.
