This old tramway resembles a small country train that runs out of steam a little as it climbs the hill through the woods, before arriving at the terminus. From the semicircular outdoor terrace, there's a wonderful view of the surrounding countryside. Below you'll find a small lake, with a tiny island in the middle, spiked with a single tree. When the weather's fine, it's a popular spot for swimming and sunbathing. It's also the starting point for many hikes in the Bymarka nature reserve, a must-see if you're spending several days in Trondheim!

Take advantage of your time in the city to follow a tour and take part in a tasting in the oldest bistro in the city dating back to 1928. For purists! This beer is a real institution. It is still as popular as it has been since its launch, and it would be a shame not to taste this 100% local pleasure. Mack also has its own shop, Kjeller 5, its Ølhallen bar, and offers courses for those who would like to learn how to brew their own beer!

Every Sunday from mid-June to the end of August, a small steam train sets off through the valley for a nostalgic and... slow journey.

Today this tourist route runs for 3 km along the banks of Norway's most important river, the Glomma. A nice activity about 30 minutes from Oslo.

Thousands of different species of birds, including puffins, cormorants, gannets and different varieties of seagulls, make up a spectacular sight. Don't forget your binoculars and cameras!
