    Practical advice for St Olav's Way walk

    And no problem, its quite enjoyable packing vicariously! I'm happy to help, the less weight you carry the better a trip you'll have and another brain looking over your list is always helpful, we ran our packing list past several people before we left and took many ideas on board. Its worth...

    Practical advice for St Olav's Way walk

    OK I also noticed you are taking a towel and that is part of your toiletries weight. A towel is rather redundant item- firstly any accommodation that provides a shower will also provide towels.

    Practical advice for St Olav's Way walk

    Really glad people are still finding our page useful :) I'm afraid it is getting out of date, but perhaps in a few years time we'll walk Olav's Way again and update it. Also there is far more info available on this route than when we walked it, so maybe our site isn't so crucial any more. All...
