forwardho Posted March 18 #1 Share Posted March 18 I am trying to plan a starting point for a self walking tour of Oslo. Can anyone tell me where Holland docks in Oslo ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jhannah Posted March 18 #3 Share Posted March 18 In the past we've always docked just below Akershus Fortress. It's interesting to go through, and it's just up the hill from where you disembark. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were on Eurodam, and we did the sail in from about 7 to docking at 10am. Really pretty. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuthC Posted March 18 #7 Share Posted March 18 I have usually docked where Jim noted, but I have also docked elsewhere. I was surprised to find the ship around the bend once. Not at all far away, but because of the bend, the usual place was out of sight. Confused me for a couple of minutes. In both cases the ship was right in the city. If you are going to the fortress, there is an interesting Resistance Museum there. Well worth a visit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare The-Inside-Cabin Posted March 18 #8 Share Posted March 18 (edited) On the 2023 World we docked here - In 2017 we were by the fort. I think they are using the 2023 dock more frequently now This video is a couple of years old, but it does a Google "flyover" of the possible docking locations in Oslo. The link @Henk123 provided will show you the location - It lists the docks for many cruise lines, but I noticed the quay information is blank for the HAL ships - Edited March 18 by The-Inside-Cabin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaisatsu Posted March 20 #11 Share Posted March 20 In the past, port calls were divided the Søndre Akershuskaia pier alongside the fortress and the Filipstadkaia pier to the west (marked on the map above). However, the port authority has moved most of the Akershuskai traffic nearly to the docking facilities on the opposite side of the peninsula at Revierkaia, across from the opera house. It has been improved to provide more sustainable shore power and is now taking far more large cruise ships than before. You can find the pier assignments here: https://www.oslohavn.no/globalassets/oslo-havn/dokumenter/cruise/forventede-cruiseanlop-8.2.2024.pdf SAK is Akershuskaia, the old pier alongside the fortress REV is Revierkaia on the opposite side of the Akershus peninsula FIL is Filipstadkaia, west of the city center Note that pier assignments do sometimes change before the arrival date. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
