Røldalsleden


Røldalsleden is a 165km long pilgrim path going from Seljord to Røldal in Norway. The goal of the pilgrimage is the cross in Røldal stavkyrkje (a stave church), which was said to have miraculous powers, such as healing. This is a lot less known and popular route than the pilgrim path from Oslo to Trondheim (Nidaros), Gudbrandsdalsleden. It is also rumoured to be more difficult in finding the way and it has less infrastructure for the pilgrim, such as accommodation and food stores along the route. It is also said to be very beautiful.

In the summer of 2020, I went to Seljord to walk the pilgrim path to Røldal, here you will find my tale:
