🇳🇴 Oslo like a local? (lemmy.ml)

hi folks, I'm visiting Oslo with my partner in December for just four days. Since we're not exactly fans of the most popular and touristy attractions, we'd like to visit places and hidden gems that locals know about. We won't have a car and, as mentioned, we'll only be staying for four days, so I wouldn't consider going too far from the city. Do you have any suggestions, any specialties you'd recommend?

our main interests would be:

culture
nature
folklore
music
tea houses / craft beer / specialty coffee
bike shops

(We're both vegan, so no butcher shops or meat-based dishes to try :D )

thank you!

Visit Oslo Camping in Møllergata for beer and crazy golf. Good times. For nice nature walks or skiing, you can take the subway or local trains to Nordmarka, Østmarka or Lillomarka. Holmenkollbanen to Frognerseteren, T-banen (subway) to Skullerud or bus 56 to Solemskogen. There'll be a Christmas market in Spikersuppa, between Stortinget (Parliament) and the Royal Castle.

Sorry to hear about the veganism, can't help you there - have you seen a specialist? 😆
