The Oslo Winter Park at Tryvann (Norwegian: Oslo Vinterpark) is a ski resort in Oslo, Norway. It is the most used ski resort of Norway.[2] In the 1930s, the ski slope Tryvannskleiva was constructed, and the first race was held in 1933.[3] The ski slope was later expanded with Tommkleiva, Wyllerløypa and finally with Tryvann Ski Resort.[3] As of winter of 2010, the resort has 14 slopes and 7 lifts.[2] There is only 1.2 km (0.75 mi) walking or bus distance from the Voksenkollen metro station.
