Krokskogen, Forest recreation area in Ringerike and Hole, Norway.
The 300-square-kilometer woodland spans across hills and ridges, featuring diverse trails through dense pine and spruce forest between Bærumsmarka and Vestmarka.
An 1805 section of the King's Road, known as Ringeriksveien, traversed through Krokskogen, connecting Oslo to Bergen for trade and transportation.
The forest integrates into the Norwegian outdoor lifestyle through maintained trails that support year-round activities such as hiking, cycling, and cross-country skiing.
Multiple entry points with dedicated parking areas allow visitors to access the forest network, while winter conditions enable timber transport operations.
The forest contains three notable peaks: Oppkuven at 704 meters, Ringkollen at 702 meters, and Gyrihaugen at 682 meters above sea level.
