Sognsvann, Lake in Nordmarka, Norway
A 3.3-kilometer path circles this lake at 183 meters elevation, surrounded by dense forest in the northern section of Oslo Municipality.
The lake has maintained its role as a primary water recreation spot for Oslo residents since the early development of the municipality.
Sognsvann represents Norwegian outdoor life traditions through year-round activities like swimming in summer and cross-country skiing in winter.
The illuminated path around the lake includes wheelchair access and designated facilities, with direct connection to Oslo Metro line 5.
A geographical marker in the form of a pyramid stands on the eastern shore, indicating the center point of Oslo Municipality.
