Enjoy one of Finland's most popular traditional rituals in this sauna experience - you'll travel from Helsinki to Kuusijärvi Lake for a most relaxing day, including bathing in a frozen lake to cool off!
Helsinki Sauna Experience
At the scheduled time, we'll meet on Mannerheiminaukio Street in the heart of Helsinki. Are you up for a relaxing Finnish-style sauna experience? Bet you are!
We'll head to Lake Kuusijärvi, a beautiful natural area that is home to the only public smoke saunas in the country. On our way there, we'll tell you all about the sauna culture in Finland, as well as its many health benefits.
Now, it's time for you to experience being inside a smoke sauna firsthand. The saunas are heated for six hours thanks to a stove filled with wood and covered by stones. Since there's no chimney, the smoke from the wood-burning stays inside the sauna, allowing the body and mind to relax. Did you know that it's a perfect way to get rid of stress?
After 45 minutes in the sauna, we'll complete this ritual with a swim in Lake Kuusijärvi. With a clear mind and a relaxed body, we'll change into dry clothes and head back to the starting point in Helsinki after a three-hour experience.
