THE CHALLENGE

Recreate the challenge facing a small group of allied special forces in 1943, when they were sent to destroy a facility which was instrumental to Hitler's development of the atomic bomb.

Join us as we follow in their footsteps on the remote Hardangervidda plateau, paying homage to their bravery and success, which ultimately changed the outcome of the war.
