Oslo's Harbor Promenade is fabulous. It has a wide promenade where people can easily walk and has a set of attractions that are worth the way. From the sandy bay, the wooden beach to be able to take excellent pictures at sunset, a wide selection of restaurants, bars and cafes overlooking the marina. In September we saw a very nice water and light show at the marina. In addition, there are also sauna boats.
To me it's perfect.

The really touristy and interesting area is between Tjuvholmen and Munch museum. Beautiful buildings, with great architecture, a mixture of old and new, restaurants, bars, places where you can stop at a sauna and a swim in the sea (for those who are not afraid of cold water). You can stop at the port, in Rådhusplassen, from where you can go on a fjord cruise (about 2 hours) or you can take the B1 waterbus line to the islands.

Joined the walk at around point 4 and then walked west, along the way past 2 promentaries, through the fortress and past the new opera house. Cold but crisp day with blue sky,
Started early and found beautifully quiet spots, great people watching and views across the water. Lots of places to just sit along the route. Information points helpful and provide historical points to note.
Plenty of place to eat or just sit and watch the views.

Oslo is very fortunate in having a long promenade with lots to see and do along it. It links many of the main sites together e,g. The new National Museum with the Opera House and Munch Museum

Perfect strolling along the waterfront with unique views of the water and the unusual architecture. This is where everyone congregates and is a perfect spot to sit and watch people. Perfect on a sunny day, slightly less than perfect when it rains. You will spend time here, and it is well spent.

A splendid promenade from the trikk station to the tip of Tjuvholmen.
Stroll to the gleaming opera house, then all the way along the harbour to the Astrop Fearnley MOMA, and beyond to the beach park.
The promenade has one after another restaurants, bronze statuary of nautical themes, and ice cream kiosks.
Stop for lunch or dinner at the many seafood establishments, or a drink on the floating lounges.
This is the best place in Oslo for people-watching, enjoying the Oslofjord vistas, bird-watching, and a morning jog. A definite must when visiting Oslo!

What a lovely walking area around the waterfront! For browsing it was the best, enjoyed the sea smell and sounds. Was initially looking to buy ferry tickets and didn’t readily see signs directly me where to do that. Had to ask a local person. Maybe a highly visible sign in English about where to buy which kinds of ferry tickets?

Somewhat akin to Copenhagens Nyhavn area, but edgier and more gritty. Bars bistros and pop-up food vans/containers a plenty. Interesting and easy and safe.

The views, new and old buildings, surroundings, restaurants and folk life makes this a very good way to take in the norwegian capital. Do not rush it, plan for stops and enjoy.

It seems that a lot of money and thought has gone into renervating the harbour area of Oslo. So many fantastic shops, bars, restaurants and cafes to visit plus the lovely new modern art gallery with views across the fjord.
