Course description

The full distance over all the seven sisters offers technical terrain with steep uphill and downhill sections that will put both your physical and mental capabilities to the test.

The race starts at the southwest end of the mountain range. After less than 3 km you will reach the first summit, Breitind (910 m). At Bretind you will both get a fantastic view of the Helgeland coast line and a look at the upcoming peaks.

From there you will face a challenging descent which likely will take you through a section of last winters snow. The next peak on your journey is Kvasstinden (1,018 m).

From Kvasstinden, a longer traverse brings you to the Twins (Tvillingan) — first the Southern Twin (980 m), then the Northern Twin (945 m), separated by just a short saddle.

Next is Skjerdingen (1,037 m), where rough ridges and boulder fields reward precise footwork, followed by Grytfoten (1,019 m), a final grind before the high point.

The last and highest summit is Botnkrona (1,072 m). Tag the top, take in the view, and steel yourself for the long, rugged descent toward the finish — a section that includes fixed ropes in places and demands full focus all the way down. Be aware, the last downhill is longer than you think.
