LIVE from the Camino Gudbrandsdalsleden - Eidsvoll to Trondheim
Sadly not! I don't live there anymore, and just came back from a visit on the 15th. I stand by my offer though, who knows, one day our pilgrim paths will cross- nidarosa

LIVE from the Camino Gudbrandsdalsleden - Eidsvoll to Trondheim
Thank you for this thread, @Purky! I started walking from Oslo towards my home town of Trondheim in May last year. We decided to walk in spring to avoid the heat and it turned into a heatwave! I can walk when I am tired and cold and ill, and I can walk in rain and wind and snow, but I can not...- nidarosa

Norwegian Trekking cabins
I'm not 100% sure but I don't think so. There are a good few stabbur (small cabin type buildings on farms) where you can stay, herberges (albergues/youth hostels) etc along the trail so you don't need to bring a tent, but it also depends on your stages, how far you want to walk each day etc. I'd...- nidarosa

St. Olavsleden went south - assumption is the mother of all screw ups
So sorry to hear that, my deepest sympathies for the suckiness. I was supposed to walk Oslo to Trondheim this summer and ran into the opposite weather problem - it was just too hot. Long distances of dreaded tarmac with no services, no shade and 2 litres = 2 kgs more water than planned to haul...- nidarosa

@AttheEdgeoftheWorld, if you are still starting today, god tur! We got to Brumunddal yesterday where I had my second bout of heat exhaustion, and the heat is forecast to last another ten days, so we have sadly decided not to carry on for now. I hope you get good walking weather and look forward...- nidarosa

Getting to Liellehammer or Ringebu?
From the airport there is a train, Flytoget, that goes straight to the Oslo S main station, where you will find trains going north towards Trondheim. It's really quite quick and convenient. You can also try to get cheap train tickets by booking a while beforehand. As for following us, I will be...- nidarosa

Getting to Liellehammer or Ringebu?
Yes, flying to Oslo and getting a train is your best and easiest bet. When are you going? We start from Oslo next week!- nidarosa

Thank you so much for all your info, @Mr Magoo , it is very much appreciated. Webcams on the E6 - who knew? I am in the last throes of packing now and am dithering over minimal and not too heavy and still warm enough and what boots ... but I'll get there. On Monday evening, in fact! We start...- nidarosa

Thanks, @Mr Magoo, I have two scandi credencials already but they are different designs and even slightly different sizes, so I went ahead and ordered two from Sweden instead!- nidarosa

Ah, yes, the boot question. I initially wanted to wear my lovely goretex Salomon shoes but chances are it will be too wet and boggy (nice idea though). So boots it is. I have now found a pair - wide toebox Salomons actually - that fit my foot perfectly but they are relatively heavy and get very...- nidarosa

@Mr Magoo Did you walk on the east or west side of lake Mjøsa? We were planning, weather and ground conditions permitting, to walk on the west side and getting the steam paddle boat across to Hamar on the east side and carry on from there. Kit wise our packs will be lighter as we will camp less...- nidarosa

I would never have thought about re-using the Turmat bags, but now I will! Hurtigris, basically dehydrated rice, would work well in those, with some stuff added (depending on mood and available stuff). Good idea! I am making notes of all your tips here and will try to present them to the...- nidarosa

Haha, I am glad you found Norwegian cuisine to your liking! I tend to go for savoury rather than sweet so am aiming to have mackerel in tomato sauce (big yellow tins) for lunch when I can - that and cod roe caviar are the only things I absolutely *must* have from home still. I can see us...- nidarosa

@Mr Magoo Yes I am Norwegian, born and bred, and Trondheim is my home town, hence the nick. Your friend was right; it is nice to have two languages. I used to wear the Nosilife trousers too, but they don't last, I use them all up. I prefer walking in a skirt and tights now but Norway and camping...- nidarosa

No, no, keep it coming. I haven't lived in Norway since 2000 though I do go home several times a year, but I haven't done any serious walking there. Hence the 'oops, I need decent trousers' moment. When I walked from StJPdP-SdC in 2012, I actually wore out my Craghoppers - well, the material was...- nidarosa

Ooh, enthusiastic detail sounds marvellous! You could share it here too? That way more people can find it and you get a bigger audience to enthuse to? I have made a note of your warnings/comments. I didn't get the rødsprit thing, sorry. I only use the small gas canisters for my Jetboil and...- nidarosa

I will be walking Gudbrandsdalsleden from Oslo to Trondheim with a friend this summer, but it seems you will be ahead of us. We are bringing some camping stuff - a tent fly, bivvy bags, sleeping mats, bags and silk liners - so we can stay outdoors if we want or need to, and a Jetboil to make hot...- nidarosa
