Verdensparken is a public park in Furuset with open spaces for different kinds of leisure activities. It has several areas for sitting and grilling, a small brook to walk along, play spaces for children, and training facilities for physical activities.
The park was built in 2013 as part of a city development project that created or improved green spaces across Oslo. The initiative aimed to give different neighborhoods better public outdoor areas.
Residents from many different countries shape how the park is used, gathering in various meeting spots that reflect the neighborhood's diversity. The way people spend time here shows the multicultural character of Furuset in everyday activity.
The park is divided into seven meeting areas with seating and grilling equipment that are easy to spot when walking around. With separate play spaces and training equipment spread throughout, visitors can pick activities that suit them.
The area houses Norway's first specialized parkour training facility with obstacles and a bouldering wall. This equipment draws athletes who are looking for modern training options.
