Private Finnish Sauna Experience

You can't leave Rovaniemi without experiencing a traditional Finnish sauna, heated with a wood-burner. Enjoy the full ritual, including bathing in a frozen lake to cool off!

Private Finnish Sauna Experience

After being picked up from your hotel, you will travel from Rovaniemi to a serene location aimed at relaxation. Upon arrival at an authentic Lappish setting, enjoy views of the icy lake and surrounding forest. Experience the traditional private sauna before dipping into the cold waters.

A traditional Finnish sauna is a wood cabin heated by a wood-burning stove, with temperatures reaching 176–230 °F (80–110 °C). Saunas are vital for health in Finland, with an average of one sauna per household. Complete the sauna ritual by enjoying the heat followed by a plunge into the icy lake or rolling in the snow. Conclude with blueberry tea before returning to your hotel.
