The Steig 627 is very demanding, as it goes over difficult terrain and the stones mostly roll when stepped on. Some parts of the path are borderline, as every step must be well considered, otherwise there is a risk of slipping and falling.

An easy hike in August, but good fitness is required because the climb is steep and steady. Good hiking shoes are a must, because the descent, due to gravel, rocks, and stones, is not the easiest. With calm and a little caution, it's very easy.

The terrain here is characterized by an expanse of gravel, rocks and stones that make the terrain difficult to travel, in addition to possible accumulations of residual snow.
