Getting to Gjovik

It was not until nearly nine o'clock that I was able to leave the campground I stayed at last night. Part of this was my own fault because I wasn't really well prepared this morning to make a quick getaway.

Very early on in the day, I faced the dilemma where the signposting indicated something different to the route shown on the pilgrim office website. I made the wrong choice and added a little bit to the day as I got back on track to the changed route. While the new route followed a major road for a fair amount of time, it eventually got back down closer to the shores of the Lake.

While generally I was happy walking along the lakeshore, there were a couple of places where the tree roots that I didn't see caused me to take a tumble. Not pleasant.

The final leg into Gjøvik was all on asphalt. While it passed some interesting places, it was getting pretty hard on the feet at the end of 20 kilometres.Läs mer
