This is Jeff's favourite place to hang out on Gressholmen and Gressholmen is a recreational island off Oslo.
The island is host to many beautiful places to bbq and relax and also to swim when it is warm enough for you. In case you forgot to bring your own picnic there is a nice pub on the island that serves light meals and beer.
A perfect place to spend a day in the summer.
You can take the boat there and use your regular bus ticket. The ferry terminal is near the Rådhus.
