TWIN PEAKS 13k »
Come and experience the breathtaking views of the World Heritage Site. You have 10 hours to make your way up both Getsvedjeberget and Skuleberget – you’ve got this!
THREE PEAKS 17k »
Experience what is often called the High Coast Three Peaks – Herrestaberget, Getsvedjeberget, and Skuleberget. A tough challenge, but you’ll have plenty of time!
CLASSIC 25k »
From North to South, the High Coast Trail and Skuleberget. Beautiful views, lots of laughs, and a great challenge. Perfect for those who usually jog 10 kilometers. You have 10 hours to complete it – it’s totally doable!
EXTREME 35k »
We start on the same route as the Classic, but we also venture onto the mighty Bergsrundan (10k), where we experience Stampberget and take another trip up Slåttdalsberget. This isn't for everyone – but maybe for you.
INSANE 50k »
One of the craziest things you can do in terms of running. You start with the same distance as the Classic, but then you take on both Bergsrundan (10k) and Kustrundan (15k). Are you really sure about this?
