Round-trip option

This hike can be done as a loop that includes Kjeretoppane, Veten, and Brurahornet. From the trailhead you first reach Kjeretoppane, then continue up to Veten – the highest peak with wide coastal views – before returning via Brurahornet.

It’s also possible to shorten the route by visiting only two of the peaks (for example Kjeretoppane + Veten, or Veten + Brurahornet) and still make it a round-trip back to the starting point.
