The Bachelorette, Rachel Lindsay, departs South Carolina's Hilton Head for colder pastures this week. Monday's episode will see her and the beaus embarking on the grandeur and awe that is Oslo, Norway.

Of course, it remains to be seen exactly where the episode will take us minute by minute.

Thankfully, we do have a sneak peek as to where Lindsey finds herself in Week Five, dangling precariously alongside Bryan Abasolo.

If you ever wanted to take up ski-jumping, this new episode will give you a new appreciation and vantage behind the sport.

As TV Guide explains, the two are literally hanging out at the ski jump in Oslo, which is where the tandem gets in a bit of romantic rappelling.

Lindsay ties the exercise into her romantic exploits: "I think I'm more afraid to let go emotionally than physically, but today I'm physically afraid to let go."

The tower looks to be that of the Holmenkollbakken, which Wikipedia explains has hosted both the 1952 Winter Olympics and the FIS Nordic World Ski Championships several times over. Visit Oslo has more information on visiting this location: There is an observation deck, which means getting a view like the two possible lovebirds did above.

(There is no mention of rappelling services, so this could very well be a one-off situation for ABC.)

It also remains one of the best places in the world to visit if you like skiing: "Inside the ski jump is the Holmenkollen Ski Museum, the oldest of its kind in the world. The museum presents over 4,000 years of skiing history, Norwegian polar exploration artifacts and an exhibition on snowboarding and modern skiing."

There is even a ski simulator for those who love to slalom but lack affection for the outdoors and ridiculous heights.

There are plenty of things to do in this magical city if you are in town for a family vacation or to simply enjoy your own version of a reality-TV show tryst. Visit Oslo remains a fine gateway to the possibilities, which include a healthy complement of summr festivals, options for the outdoor lover and one amazing attraction after another.

It's almost enough to warrant extending the duration of Monday's show.
