FAQ’s

  • Bring 2 towels, swimwear, and something comfortable to change into after your session. We recommend a bottle of water and warm layers for afterwards.

  • Not at all. Our sessions are relaxed and guided by your own pace — move between heat and cold as it feels right for you.

  • Each session is limited to a small group. This keeps the experience calm, comfortable, and never overcrowded.

  • Sessions are shared unless you book a private hire. If you'd prefer the space to yourself or with friends, private bookings are available.

  • Spend time in the sauna, then cool off in the lake. Repeat at your own pace — there's no set structure, just a simple rhythm of heat and cold.

  • Yes — when done at your own pace. Listen to your body, stay hydrated, and take breaks when needed.

  • That's part of the experience. The sauna is warm, the water is refreshing, and the setting is beautiful in all conditions.

What to expect

A slower pace. Warmth from the sauna. Cool water from the lake. Fresh air, open space, and time to switch off. There's no rush and no pressure — just a simple, natural way to reset.
