In medievel times a pilgrimage was a dangerous thing. Many people were seriously ill and walked to Nidaros seeking healing by the grave of St.Olav. The road was long, you traveled slow, you had to trust the locals along the way for food and shelter, wild animals could be everywhere, so could robbers and evil people.
My mind is focused on beauty, on serenity.
But also on the healing offered by nature, by the pilgrim way, by the people I walk with, by St.Olav, by the goal far ahead
and by my Creator, my Saviour.
