Sognsvann (or Sognsvannet[1]) is a lake just north of Oslo, Norway.
Lying in the greenbelt around Oslo, the lake is a popular camping, picnicking and bathing destination for the residents of Oslo during the summer, as well as a cross-country skiing, skating and ice fishing destination in the winter. The trail around it is a destination for cycling, jogging or rollerblading for the snowless months of the year.
Part of the lakes popularity stems from its easy access from Oslo; Sognsvann station, located on the south end of the lake, is the final stop on line 3 on the Oslo T-bane.

- ^ The suffix "-et" is a form of the Norwegian language definite article and means "the". Hence Sognsvannet is equivalent to "the Sognsvann." Both forms can be found in English language text.
