Grimstad is a small town situated in the far South of Oslo. I spent four nights in the Scandic Hotel, Grimstad which is situated 200m away from this beautiful small port. The packed wooden houses situated in the above hill adds more beauty to this region. Though Grimstad is not a major tourist attraction in Norway, it's worth a visit in the tiny awesome town.
