Prepare to Enjoy Autumn in Oslo
September is just around the corner, which means it’s time to step into the long pants and shirts & get comfy! As the weather starts cooling down, first at night, then during the day; it’s also a good time for you to plan a trip to Oslo before the winter officially begins. Wondering what to do in Oslo during autumn? We’ve got you covered! Read more to find out how to enjoy the early autumnal weather while the crowds are quiet & few.
Oslo is best enjoyed while walking down the city streets and cobbled alleyways. You are sure to find hidden gems like family-owned bakeries & small boutique stores. With daylight slowly decreasing, September is the perfect time to explore all the landmarks & tourist attractions before the days get shorter and tourists arrive during the winter season.
The crisp autumnal air will breathe into you the energy to explore the city parks & gardens. Visit the scenic shores in Oslo and gorge on some cosy comfort cuisine local to Norway. Autumn also welcomes the sauna season, which means you can take time to spend at the hotel spa or at one of the luxury wellness centres in the city. We recommend taking part in hiking along the natural trails when you're with friends or family to get the full Norwegian experience.
Temperatures in the city range from 16°C (61°F ) during the day to a cool 10°C (50°F ) & under through the night. The sea breeze makes it feel cooler, so be sure to pack a jacket or two just to be safe. If you're lucky, you won't get any rain but be sure to check the weather when you step out for the day!
Besides attractions like Vigeland Park or the Akershus Fortress, you can even check the city website for any upcoming events or musical concerts. There are also entertaining cultural programs in the local galleries & museums that you can't miss as the holiday season approaches. If you can, fuel up at locally popular spots like cafes and stick to Michelin restaurants during the nighttime for an unforgettable experience; especially if you're planning on eating outdoors and enjoying the city view. You might even get local musicians serenading as you eat; the pinnacle of Norwegian hospitality!
While summer months from June to August are especially popular, the autumn season in September brings in a tourist respite. You can experience the culture of Oslo before crowds of travellers visit the city during Thanksgiving, Christmas & the New Year! Plan, pack & prepare for a beautiful staycation when you visit Oslo in September. Book a flight- ASAP!
