without ski jumpers? Whatever. The view is great, and the museum is OK, if you're interested in skiing.
I'm a winter sports fan and to see this famous venue up close was a thrill. I can only imagine the thrill of jumping in that huge bowl with thousands screaming!

Had a spare day in weekend after a hectic week, we decided that city was boring...and lets venture out... this ski resort was something of a new experience and hence thought it would be a good place... and YES IT WAS!!! Taxis are freakishly expensive in Oslo and hence had purchased a Ruter pass couple of days back..( this can...

Seeing the view from the top of the tower was amazing! To imagine standing up there on a pair of skis getting ready to jump was unbelievable. The museum itself was also interesting but I would skip the simulator next time. It was very short and not all that exciting.
