You'll need a bike to get out of the city and on to Bygdoy - there is a bus, but it only goes to the museums. Cycling through the royal estate, through hayfields and pine forests, you'll come first to a lovely sandy cove at Paradisbukta, and then to Huk, at the very end of the peninsula, where you can swim clad (near the restaurant) or naked (a little further north). A little touch of wilderness 20 minutes' bike ride from City Hall.

Come summer, the locals hop on a ferry to the islands for a barbecue and a swim in the fjord. For the price of a tube ticket, it feels like escaping to another planet, and it’s only a five-minute boat ride away.

To reach the ferry, take the 60 bus to Vippetangen
