Such an amazing adventure!! The best staff, nothing was too much trouble. When I emailed about being able to go on the zip line I expected to be told no health and safety won't allow it. To my surprise they said that everyone can experience the zip line no matter ability and what could they do to help! The hill up to the ski jump and museum was pretty steep. We didn't have a car, but if you did there was a huge car park nearer the top. Once up, the wheelchair access is great. All paths are smooth and there is a lift up to the museum which has more than enough space to move around. There is then another lift up to the top of the ski jump. The views are pretty spectacular. We went on a drop in day for Zip Lining, they let me go first, so once harnessed up (they are great at helping even when I needed to be held up), they walk you out to the zip and you actually stand on the same bit ski jumpers do! As I have trouble holding my head up a member of staff was clipped on behind me to hold my head and we flew together.
Disabled Access In and Around
Excellent
Everything was level access.
Parking & Transport
Good
We took the metro from Oslo centre out to Holmenkollen, which was amazingly easy and free as we had Oslo passes. Every stop was wheelchair accessible with level entry on and off the train. I took a star off as the hills from the station to the ski jump were extremely steep and I didn't see a taxi rank or bus service up.
