We just love the word the #BBC uses to describe trips along the Nordic pilgrim trails: “coolcations”. And always nice to get a mention 😎

The 'cool Camino': Why hikers are heading north
Every summer, Spain's iconic Camino bakes under extreme heat, but Norway's St Olav Ways offer pilgrims a quieter, cooler path to redemption.

When you book a trip through us, we donate to Trees for All, an organization that plants new trees all over the world. Is it greenwashing? In a way, because newly planted trees cannot compensate for the environmental impact of traveling. But it is certainly better than planting no trees at all. 🌲🌳🌴

For people hiking the S:t Olavsleden: we just got a message from pilgrim Tirza that the path between Alsen and Mörsil is very wet and slippery, especially here (see map). As long as it's raining, it might be better to take the bicycle road. #stolavsleden #pilgrim #hiking #mörsil #nordicpilgrim

Just a heads-up: because of the Aqua Nor conference in Trondheim, prices of a lot of accommodations in are a lot higher 18-22 August. Sometimes more than double. Book early and not in the city center, and you should be okay. aquanor.no/en/

Very sad news reaching us from #Selånger - the start of the S:t Olavsleden in #Sweden: the Selånger Pilgrimscenter has filed for bankruptcy. Our thoughts go out to all the wonderful people working there, who helped countless pilgrims have an easy and inspired start of their journey. Tusen tack 🙏

Very sad news from Trondheim: the Nidaros Pilegrimsgård is closing its doors after the 2025 season. Located just behind the cathedral, the Pilegrimsgård has been essential for St. Olav Ways. A place where, for many years, pilgrims were welcomed after their long journey. We are going to miss you. ❤️
