I wondered is there is a minimum distance you have to walk to obtain the certificate at Nidaros ??
Hi purky,The same rule as the camino to Santiago: to qualify for the 'Olav Letter' you must have walked the last 100 kilometers into Nidaros (Trondheim).
You can get one quite easily via Ivar's forum or when you get to Oslo. I walked this way in 2008 and carried a tent. In my experience there were very few places to have the credencial stamped (only 2 in fact) and we walked all the way from Oslo to Trondheim. We met only 1 other pilgrim during the walk and 4 at the end in Trondheim so expect a solitary walk. We were able to receive our certificates without the "proof" of a credential. they proabbaly just looked at our dishevelled state. a month of walking with very few showers.Is it possible to order the credencial for Gudbranddalseden Way and have it sent to USA?
Thanks
