Join us on February 25th - 11th March 2024 for the Real Heroes of Telemark epic escape route from Norway into Sweden. The Heroes took part in Operation Gunnerside, a world famous sabotage operation during WW2.
The aim of this Operation was to sabotage Nazi Germany's attempt at producing a substance called Deuterium Oxide, (commonly known as heavy water) for the German nuclear energy program. After their successful attack on the heavy water factory at Vemork the saboteurs made the arduous, long and demanding journey into Sweden.
Taking 15 days including training this epic expedition will test you both physically and mentally. Following in their footsteps we will journey through some of the most rugged yet beautiful terrain in Norway.

Our expedition is specifically made to cater for all those interested in endurance and adventure based experiences. Winter survival skills will also be covered along with the war history of the time. Moving at a pace of 3kms and hour this Expedition ideally suited for individuals who want to test themselves in a challenging winter environment.
