About the Norwegian Trekking Association (DNT)

DNT is Norway's largest outdoor life organization, with more than 240,000 members in 56 some local member organisations across the country, from Kristiansand in the south to the North Cape in the north. DNT Oslo og Omegn ("Oslo and surroundings") is the largest member association and is a direct continuation of the original DNT of 1868. In the late 1880s, trekking associations were founded in principal cities including Trondheim, Stavanger, Skien, Kristiansand and Drammen.

DNT aims to promote straightforward, active, versatile and environmentally-friendly outdoor activities and to preserve the outdoors and the cultural landscape.
