I'm considering a trip to Norway, and I'd like to hike for part of it.

For background, my girlfriend and I would like to see Oslo and Trondheim (as our top choices), so my thought was to train from Oslo to Hamar and hike from Hamar to Lillehammer along St. Olav's Way and then take the train from Lillehammer to Trondheim.

Google says it's about 60 km (37 mi) from Hamar to Lillehammer. 13 km a day seems like a doable goal. But hiking time is dependent on elevation change, and trail conditions, so considering the terrain in that area, how long would it take to hike?

We're in decent shape right now, but could easily train up before going.

We'd like to go in early May.
