Also known as St. Olav's Way, ("Sankt Olavs vei"), the main route, which is approximately long, starts in Oslo and heads North, along Lake Mjøsa, up the valley Gudbrandsdalen, over the mountain range Dovrefjell and down the Oppdal valley to end at Nidaros Cathedral in Trondheim. There is a Pilgrim's Office in Oslo which gives advice to pilgrims and a Pilgrim Centre in Trondheim, under the aegis of the cathedral, which awards certificates to successful pilgrims upon the completion of their journey.

Port of Ngqura paleo-channel that runs through the site and Jahleel Island that is situated 1 km off-shore. The paleo channel provides the opportunity to provide a deepwater port without the need to dredge large quantities of consolidated material, which results in huge savings in capital dredging. The environmental sensitivity (birdlife / penguin population) of Jahleel Island restricted any development within 500 m of the island. The position of the main breakwater had to be such that the required exclusion zone around Jahleel Island was adhered to. One of the coastal processes considered relevant during the design of the port was sediment transport.
