NORWAY EXPEDITION SEASON:

LIVE NOW

Finse, Norway has been the home of polar training for well over a hundred years, playing host to all the titans of polar exploration from Amundsen to Shackleton, serving as preparation for their ultimate goals in Antarctica. Now, for seven weeks each year, Finse becomes Shackleton's Expedition HQ as Director of Expeditions, Louis Rudd MBE, and the Challenges team train guests in essential polar skills to undertake their first expedition or prepare them for even more extreme challenges further afield.
