This appears to be a great initiative, but most of the material is at least two links away and not in English. Is it possible to provide a precis here in English?

It's a valid comment and request.

I'm on the ball and very positive for this development.

My personal choise is to gather info in blog format only, but links is of course forwarded regardless ,to all the good people of this forum.

So, in the mean time, follow FB links and use translation service, (as I am often forced to regarding spanish ) when offered.

This tread is "heads up" only. Press, media Camino was last week so some patience for articles in English is asked for.

Epic pictures speaks volume though.

Hope this clarified some of you're thoughts dougfitz.

Thank you @PlutseligPilegrim. I am planning to walk St Olavsleden in 2018. I collected my credencial when I was in Oslo a couple of weeks ago and took the time to walk up to the Oslo Pilgrims Centre, and picked up an English language guidebook while I was in Trondheim.

It would be fascinating to see this route extended back to start where the now St Olav started his final journey. I have read that the path from Sundsvall is a pretty accurate recreation of that part of it. Do you know if the earlier part of his last journey is also well documented?

I've taken the opportunity to forward request for English info with a following positive responce. In due time it would bee a good idea to round up good people motivated for the most exiting camino possible. ( With the exeption of Jerusalem nowadays)

The focus should bee to let all parties get info needed to start planning....route will open officially may 2018 .....

BUT , Novgorod is still in the future....that will without doubt bee a huge step forward in a Scandinavian perspective...

Feel free to PM email adress if you want to....

Regards, Bo
