Karihaugen
0
We are now passing Karihaugen, an area that marks the transition between Oslo and the surrounding municipalities. From here, Lørenskog lies to the west, with growing residential areas and shopping centers, while Høybråten lies to the east – a quieter area characterized by detached homes and green surroundings. Karihaugen is also an important traffic hub, where several roads meet and guide traffic out of the city. This makes it a natural link between urban Oslo and the expanding suburbs. From this point, Olbergåsen is roughly a 30-minute drive away, as the surroundings gradually become more open and residential. As you pass through here, you are quite literally moving between two worlds – from the urban to the more open, slower-paced landscape ahead.
