This is the Mikaels kapell near Driva. A hidden gem on the Gudbrandsdalsleden where cyclists narrowly miss it. St. Michael’s Chapel was especially built for pilgrims in 2012. A charming wooden chapel, flanked by a modest clock tower.
Behind the altar is a window by way of altar frontal. The window offers a magnificent view on creation and more precisely on the mountains of Oppdal. The name of archangel Michael has been chosen because of the excavation of a bronze Michael statue, called Rise-engel, 500 m north of the chapel.
The chapel can be easily reached by bicycle from the cycle route near Driva and is located on the Extra Cycle Route Vinstradalen (click for more info on the route).
