Planning to walk the Gudbrandsdalsleden (western route) in Norway
Hi Dougfitz, I'm Sorry to hear about your trouble with our planning tool at pilegrimsleden.no. You are not alone. We are well aware of it's issues.

St Olavsleden
Hi, Many pilgrims tell me that this is a wonderfull hike, and they are very proud of their achievement when arriving here in Trondheim. I would not worry about the bears. Yes, Sweden have bears in this area, but they are rearly seen by people and very shy. I reccommend you to visit our home...- PilgrimCenterTrondheim

Understanding the Names of the Pilgrim Routes in Norway: The Confusion between St. Olav's Way and St. Olav Ways
I do not know about that story, and can not pin point this route. There were several "pioniers" who walked the routes long before the actual St. Olav Ways formally opened. But there were also a pilgrim route in the making conected to St. Olavsleden which was going more south through...- PilgrimCenterTrondheim

Understanding the Names of the Pilgrim Routes in Norway: The Confusion between St. Olav's Way and St. Olav Ways
I belive this might be because the Norwegian and Swedish organize the work differently. In Norway the St. Olav Ways are partly state founded and have an ambition to develop and create traffic along all of the Norwegian St. Olav Ways to Trondheim. In Sweden, I belive there have only been one big...- PilgrimCenterTrondheim

Understanding the Names of the Pilgrim Routes in Norway: The Confusion between St. Olav's Way and St. Olav Ways
I often hear foreign pilgrims, and also a lot of Norwegian pilgrims being puzzled by the nameing for the Norwegian Pilgrim Routes, or the norwegian "Caminos". I totally understand your trouble.

I trust you know your own abillities and limitations well. Looking forward to see you in Trondheim in 2024 ;) Sadly the Norwegian pilegrimsleden.no do not have a GPX file for the St. Olavsleden, only for the Gudbrandsdalsleden at the moment. Luckily the Swedish page Stolavsleden.com have the...- PilgrimCenterTrondheim

Planning for the St. Olav Ways, Norway
Hi, thank you for this important question Pricerange vary a lot and I do not have the full picture. I belive the price for a single bed can range between NOK 250 - 400. Excluded breackfast. About 25 - 40 euro. Notice that the accommodations in Norway are a lot smaler. It is hard to compete...- PilgrimCenterTrondheim

Planning for the St. Olav Ways, Norway
I have little knowledge about the field of sight impairment. Norway has a lot of terrain and can be difficult to walk for people. If i am going to reconmend a path in norway (and Sweden) for you, it will be the St. Olavsleden from Selonger to Stiklestad to Trondheim, But take the "outher path"...- PilgrimCenterTrondheim
