Holmenkollbakken og skimuseet (Holmenkollen Ski Jump and Ski Museum) Review

A feat of world-class engineering, this beloved ski jump was first constructed in 1892 and has been rebuilt numerous times, remaining a distinctive part of Oslo's skyline. The cool, futuristic-looking jump you see today was finished in 2010. It offers spectacular views and some repose from Oslo's urbanity, and it still hosts international competitions. The ski-jump simulator puts you in the skis of real jumpers, and the world's oldest ski museum presents 4,000 years of ski history. Check on hours before visiting; they're subject to change, particularly in the fall through spring months. Guided tours of the museum and jump tower are both available.
