Overnight in Oppdal

I've been offered a space in a cabin by another Pilgrim when I got to up down. That was a great benefit to me as it was proving difficult to find a reasonably price place to stay without walking on a little further. Which I didn't want to do in the evening after the train arrived.
My plan to do a little shopping at a supermarket when I arrived and go straight to the cabin was foiled. As I went to collect my pack to get off the train, I realised that I had left my walking poles on the platform at Kongsvoll station. A quick search show there were a couple of outdoor stores that offered good prospects for replacing them. The 1st of these was closed, so it was on to the second, which wasn't all that far. At this stage, I realized that beggars can't be choosers and that I was going to have to pick from whatever they had irrespective of any personal taste I had in the matter.
The four bed cabin was an interesting layout. Essentially, there were two bunk beds, each about long enough for two small adults to share without touching, but really not a proposition for the two of us to share. Initially, I chose to use the top bunk, but it was almost impossible to get into as an adult. So I rearranged the couch so that it made a reasonable bed and slept on that instead.

When we were getting away in the morning, the owner realised that he had only been paid for one person to use the cabin endocrine rushing out to collect the additional fee for the extra person. We thought this had been cleared up the night before, but apparently, it hadn't. Even with the extra, it's still made a relatively cheap night for both of us.

Getting back onto the marked trail was relatively simple. The one wrinkle was a closed off section of track, but an alternative was readily available, and we were able to get up to the point where we were on the marks Saint Ola sway quite quickly.Weiterlesen
