Imagine a place with more than 150 waterfalls, almost all of which have easy access and a stable climate that guarantees long periods of cold weather. Add in a local population that welcomes visiting ice climbers, a dramatic World War II history and great skiing on offer for 'rest' days and this is not just a place to dream about - it is Rjukan. Situated in the centre of southern Norway, with fairly short access from the main cities, and with world class ice climbing, it is no wonder that the place has rapidly gained popularity.
