Norway Travel – 5 fantastic photo spots in Norway
This family's experience:

Activities: After landing in Oslo, we didn't want a long drive, so we went to the Tyrifjord. We enjoyed the peace, let our Kleinkind (toddler) throw stones, and discovered one of our most beautiful photo spots in Norway

Highlights: It was great to start our trip so relaxed. The tranquility of the lake and letting our child play made for a perfect start. We discovered a beautiful photo spot by chance! ✨
