There's an already-accepted approach of using the nrfx APIs directly, but the following should also be valid and I haven't found it recommended in other places in the forum:

Based on the documentation, you can use Zephyr Counter peripherals to access the HW timers rather than the RTC peripheral underlying the Timer API. The API is different, but looks like you can access the timers in a "Zephyr way" with this approach.

Thank you very much, this is what I was looking for.

Kind regards,

Hi,

You can find samples of using nrfx APIs for HW timers in this GitHub repository.

Best regards,
