Kristiansand and its Surroundings
arrow_backTo the overviewJust a few hours from Denmark, the southern Norwegian capital of Kristiansand awaits – a perfect holiday destination for both young and old.
If you have children on vacation, Kristiansand Zoo should be at the top of your agenda. If, however, you prefer relaxation and coziness, Kristiansand offers the impressive Bystranda beach, the beautiful parks Baneheia and Ravnedalen Nature Park, and the charming historic district Posebyen.
Also, remember that from Kristiansand, it's just a short drive to some of Norway's most popular holiday areas, both to the west and to the north. Heading west, the southern Norwegian coast offers a unique landscape where many tiny islands and rocks provide fantastic conditions for fishing, sailing, swimming, canoeing, kayaking, and SUP boarding – as well as hiking and cycling in the unique coastal scenery.
If you choose to drive north from Kristiansand, the magical Telemark region awaits with vast forests, beautiful lakes, stunning mountains, impressive stave churches, and fascinating history. Some special highlights include the Gaustatoppen mountain and the Telemark Canal, both worth a visit.
