Bjerkedalen park

Bjerkedalen is a public park in the Bjerke District covering around 36,000 square meters of land. It features walking paths and bridges throughout, with a central promenade, flowering meadows, and open lawn areas.

This park was created as part of an urban renewal project completed in 2013. A key feature of its development was bringing the Hovin creek back above ground after it had been buried for 50 years.

The pavilion at the center serves as a social hub where locals gather throughout the year for events and informal meetings. It reflects how the neighborhood uses this space as an extension of their community life.

The paths are designed for easy access, with gentle slopes that accommodate people of all mobility levels. The space remains accessible in various weather conditions, making it suitable for regular visits throughout the year.

The plantings throughout are remarkably diverse, featuring around 50,000 perennial flowers including irises and daylilies. This variety allows visitors to observe different blooms appearing at different times as seasons change.
