Fun!
Great experience! The snowshoes honestly felt like flip flops which was interesting. Peter our guide was very friendly and gave us advice for other nearby activities as well. The activity was strenuous and although it was snowing, being bundled up we got hot pretty quickly!

Amazing!!
We recently did the snowshoe tour with When in Norway and it was nothing short of amazing! Our guide Linn really made the experience. She was so kind, outgoing, knowledgeable, and helpful! She truly went above and beyond by also giving us recommendations for what to do with the rest of the day (Mathallen & the riverside café were delicious, scenic, and fun btw, so thank you Linn!). It was our favorite day out of our stay in Oslo. Regarding snowshoeing, the trail was scenic, peaceful, and not too difficult. It was the perfect length and the meeting point was easy to find. Highly recommend and would love to go back for another tour with Linn!

Snowshoe walk in winter wonderland
Very enjoyable trip with stunning scenery. It was only a 35 minute tram journey from Oslo central station up into the mountains but like another world when we got there. Our guide was Peter and he was great. Spoke perfect English and gave us lots of information on route. Would highly recommend!

Nice experience
Beautiful walk in the forest. The tour guide was very friendly. We had great time. The price is pricey for what you get.

Great morning in the snow
We really enjoyed the snow shoeing- Lin was great, good fun and friendly. You can go at your own pace, easy to do if you have never snow shoed and the journey to get to the starting place- Marka I think- was also interesting going through the outskirts of Oslo. A lovely start to our trip to Norway. Thank you.

Snowshoe Tour in Winter Wonderland - Oslo: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Oslo.
How much does Snowshoe Tour in Winter Wonderland - Oslo cost?
+
Prices start at $113 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Oslo usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Snowshoe Tour in Winter Wonderland - Oslo take?
+
Plan for about 3.5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Oslo is not rushed.
Is Snowshoe Tour in Winter Wonderland - Oslo worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 77 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.9/5 across 47 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Oslo, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Snowshoe Tour in Winter Wonderland - Oslo?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Snowshoe Tour in Winter Wonderland - Oslo suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3.5-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Snowshoe Tour in Winter Wonderland - Oslo?
+
Around 16 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Oslo can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Oslo and add a light layer if any part of the 3.5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Snowshoe Tour in Winter Wonderland - Oslo start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Oslo within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Oslo?
+
On Outty we rank every Oslo experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Oslo Highlights Bike Tour, Oslo Nature Walks: Island hopping, Central Oslo Guided Walking Tour with Local Guide. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Oslo?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Oslo?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
