For most people, skiing involves traveling somewhere, often far, to find mountains with snow. In Oslo, however, you can just take a train and be on skis in less than an hour.
One of the great things about Tryvann is that the slopes are all lit at night. This is necessary, because winterdays are short in Norway. It gives the opportunity to ski until 10pm during weekdays; if you have never tried it: you can actually see better than during the day, especially when there is no sun. After 6pm, more people come skiing: they take to the slopes after working during the day. Just thinking of how lucky they are, living in a city with skiing just around the corner, can make many people jealous. It also explains how the Norwegians can be so good at skiing!
