The mountain range consists of seven peaks on the southeastern half of the island. The mountains are (listed from northeast to southwest):[2]

The range is popular with hikers and offers scenic views over the surrounding area.

All the peaks can be ascended using marked paths, and on every summit there is a notebook where visitors can write their name.[3] After visiting all peaks, hikers can contact the local tourist association which will issue a certificate as a testimonial of their achievement. There is no time-limit for climbing all the peaks. The record for the quickest visit to all peaks is under 4 hours.

A good view of the mountain range can be achieved traveling by sea in the "Hurtigruten", as it passes the full length of the range.
