The wood-fired forest sauna

The scent of burning birch wood and the gentle crackle of the stove set the tone straight away. The newly built sauna has its own cold plunge that can be filled with water from the stream – like taking a dip in the stream itself. This is where you truly unwind.

  • Light the fire yourselfEnjoy the satisfaction of lighting the stove yourself. All firewood is included in your booking.
  • Heat your wayYou control the temperature – from mild, gentle warmth to intense, deep heat. The sauna is yours for 4 hours per booked day.
  • Cold plunge with stream waterThe cold plunge is filled with stream water or regular water, as you prefer. You can also take a dip in the stream itself – but it's quite shallow.
