    Gudbrandsdalen June 2018

    I too am doing the last of my packing up. My basement currently looks like I detonated a bomb, but things are coming together. Now is the pair down to essentials game with the mantra "less weight" repeating in my head. I have in contact with the pilgrim office in Dovre and they are hopeful that...

    Gudbrandsdalen June 2018

    Thanks for this info. I'll be grabbing the train straight from the airport station so I will have to find something in Otta. Fingers crossed that the petrol stations carry it there.

    Gudbrandsdalen June 2018

    Thanks so much for the advice. I hadn't seen the Swedish site, but have ordered a passport now. I'm might not arrive in time but I have a regular pilgrims passport from this site anyway and hopefully, that will suffice. I'm just getting into assembling my kit now. Trying to pare down as much...

    Gudbrandsdalen June 2018

    Oo thank you both for the tips. Mr. Magoo, Thanks for the photo!! Now I know what to look for. I often reuse my camp meal bags and also have made a little lightweight sleeve out of reflective insulation material (it looks like foil coved bubble wrap). I have made a cozy for my pot too. It...

    Gudbrandsdalen June 2018

    Thank you so much for your all your replies, Mr. Magoo and Nidarosa. Great to know about the rødsprit. ? I love the simplicity and the silence of the alcohol stoves....not to mention the weight or lack thereof. Can you buy this Turnmat anywhere or just in the outdoor shops as I will have no time...

    Gudbrandsdalen June 2018

    Hello all. I have the luxury of having a couple weeks in Norway to spare before leaving from Oslo to Svalbard for a work trip. I have decided that I will use this time to walk part of the Gudbrandsdalen path. Instead of starting in Oslo, I will take the train immediately to Otta June 1st and...

    Help me choose?

    Hello Nidarosa, Perhaps we will meet up. I walked the VDLP in 2015 and I'm heading to Norway in little over a month to do the last half of the route there (I'll be starting in Otta) as I only have a couple of weeks. I decided to do this months ago and didn't really realize what kind of a...

    Credential, is it first registered anywhere

    Do you need two credentials? Mine only has 40 spots and I'm expecting to take about 38-40 days to do the trip and I understand that close to the end I need two stamps a day.

    Arriving in Seville May 2015

    I have been watching the weather too. Looks a bit cooler father north, but I was expecting high 20s in Seville, not 30s. Switching out one of my t-shirts for a lighter one as a result.

    Starting VDLP and my first camino May 11, 2015

    My trip is getting closer and closer. I'm a little spooked having stumbled across the recent VDLP robbery thread. Hoping that there will be some one doing the 1st stage the same day I am so I know that there will be someone else along the trail in my vicinity.

    Starting Vdlp 8 may (second camino)

    Hi there. I fly into Seville on the 9th and hope to start on the 10th. Perhaps I will see you then or on the trail.

    Arriving in Seville May 2015

    A shame for sure. But thank you for the heads up.

    Starting VDLP and my first camino May 11, 2015

    A wonderful (not so) little sola adventure. I have been looking forward to this for a very long time. I booked a nice big chunk of time for this trip so I can do lots of exploring both during and after the camino. I fly into Seville on May 10 and I hope to hit the trail the next morning. What...

    Fleece (Sweater vs jacket) vs Puff vs Merino Sweater vs nothing at all.

    Thanks Rajy62, I am a huge fan of merino, and used it on hikes, both in Turkey and Peru/Ecuador, as well as in my every day life, but I have never done something anywhere near as long as the camino, and I've been worried that I needed something more substantial like a fleece jacket. Your...
