Hey, Dougfitz, what a grand experience you are about to have. The St Olav Way, Norway is a superb, well-signed trail passing through areas of outstanding natural beauty. I followed the St Olav Way (in reverse) Aug-Oct, 2010 continuing on via Tønsberg to Larvik. Here are the resources which I used along the way -many Thanks to all who created them. Happy planning .
God Tur!

Wild camping in Norway:‘The law stipulates that you have to be at least 150m from the nearest house or outbuilding….Camping at roadside picnic areas in Norway is prohibited. They are meant for short stays only…In the period from 15th April to 15th September bonfires are illegal.’
*There are two pilegrim’s organisations in Norway, with offices and contacts in Oslo. May I suggest that you introduce yourself to both groups in Oslo before setting off. You will receive a fine welcome and all the help required.
