Rjukan has been called the "cradle of tourism in Norway". The magnificent Rjukan Waterfall was already a famous tourist attraction as early as the 18th century. Rjukan is famous for the brave feats of the heavy water saboteurs and the events that took place there during the Second World War. The fight for the heavy water was one of the most successful sabotage actions during the whole of the War. Nature has been kind in her gift of Gaustatoppen to Rjukan, which many call the most beautiful mountain in Norway. Gaustatoppen towers majestically over the town, 1,883 metres above sea level. Rjukan is the southern gateway to Norway's largest national park, the Hardangervidda mountain plateau. The first cable car to be built in northern Europe (Krossobanen), provides visitors with raid access to Hardangervidda.
The Saboteur's trail - Guided trips The Saboteur trail is the way the world-famous Norwegian Resistance used during the Second World War to get from the Hardangervidda mountain plain and down the steep gorge to Vemork to blow up the heavy water factory.

Guided tours along the Saboteur trail are available in the spring, summer and autumn. The trip takes around two hours. Diploma for children. Rjukan is a small, lively town with , a cinema, lots of shops, cafés and restaurants and a swimming pool!
