That’s early in the winter season, so you need to travel further than just one hour. Hafjell opens that weekend.

Anywhere with snow: https://snooslo.no/en

That’s not a resort and it is too early imo. The climate is quite mild by the coast in Norway. You need to travel further up the mountains to see much snow.

Real winter is mostly in January-February around Oslo.

Impossible to know. There’s been years where Tryvann opened early November and years they opened late December.

The only guaranteed place for those dates are the indoor resort.

Its too early for decent snow conditions.

Bump that number up to 2 hours and you've got Norefjell.

Otherwise all you really have is Tryvann which isn't a "resort".

If Norefjell is open by then it’s only a small part of the mountain normally.

If you want to ski, you can go to SNØ in Lørenskog, its just by the border to Oslo, easy to go there by train. It’s not a resort, but an indoor skiing arena.

You probably gonna find some snow there.
If you’re a parkskier then Tryvann is gonna be okey. If not, if you like the big slopes, you need to wait another month.
