The Pilgrim's Route, (Norwegian: Pilegrimsleden) also known as St. Olav's Way or the Old Kings' Road, is a pilgrimage route to the Nidaros Cathedral in Trondheim, Norway. The cathedral is the site of the medieval tomb of St. Olav, who brought Christianity to Norway. The main route is approximately 640 kilometres (400 mi) long. It starts in the ancient part of Oslo and heads north along the lake Mjøsa, up the Gudbrandsdalen valley, over the Dovrefjell mountains, and down the through the Oppdal and Gauldalen valleys to end at the Nidaros Cathedral. Nidaros Cathedral is a popular place of Evangelical-Lutheran Christian pilgrimage, with several thousand pilgrims visiting it each year. Mass and the Divine Office, according to the Evangelical-Lutheran tradition, are celebrated daily at Nidaros Cathedral, in addition to other prayer services that are held there throughout the day for pilgrims. Those who complete the Pilgrim's Route receive a pilgrim certificate that is granted by Nidaros Cathedral.
