Photography Tips

Frognerparken is a paradise for photographers. The best times for photography are early morning (soft light and few visitors) and sunset. The Monolith is especially beautiful in backlight. Sinnataggen is best photographed from a low angle to capture the expression.

The park is very popular for jogging and running. The path around the park is approximately 3 km. There are also outdoor exercise equipment. Yoga and group exercise are regularly organised in the park during summer. Frisbee, badminton, and other informal activities are popular.
