The Kystpilegrimsleia was probably the busiest pilgrimage route in medieval Norway, which is natural, as the journey inland was considered far more dangerous. Adam of Bremen wrote the first travel description to Trondheim (Nidaros) in 1075. "If you sail from Ålborg or Vendsyssel in Denmark, you will in a day come over to Viken, which is a city in Norway (probably Oslo). From there you keep to the left and sail along the coast of Norway, and on the fifth day you reach the town of Nidaros. You can also travel another road, which leads from the Danes' Scania over land to Nidaros. But this road over the mountains takes longer time, and since it is dangerous, it is avoided by travelers ».

Along the coast, there are many who want to help pilgrims on their journey to Trondheim and the Nidaros Cathedral. Some of them are skippers who like to take pilgrims on a pleasant journey along the wild Norwegian coast. Visit cultural-historical sites that convey how important the sea route had once been for the Norwegians. Gather a group of friends and travel together along the Norwegian coast between Egersund and Trondheim.
