FINNISH SAUNA - WHAT'S IT ALL ABOUT?
WHO IS THE EVENT FOR?
New to sauna bathing? Sauna curious, or a seasoned sauna-goer who wants to know more about Finnish sauna? This event is for you!
Hosted by niku-naku’s sauna builder and operator Erannan, who was born and raised in Finland. He will guide you through the basics of sauna bathing, and introduce you to the customs and etiquette of Finnish sauna.
WHAT TO EXPECT?
You will learn about the origins of sauna and its place in Finnish mythology, the many health benefits of sauna, and most importantly, begin practising the art of löyly. As Finns,we do not believe that sauna can be mastered; there is always something new to learn and experience!
By the end of the session, you will be thoroughly relaxed, have a good understanding of Finnish sauna traditions, and feel confident attending any sauna (and trust us, there are many to choose from! —> britishsaunasociety.org.uk and wildsaunas.info).
WHERE IS THE SAUNA?
Located in Snowdonia National Park, our Bala sauna offers stunning views of Llyn Tegid, where you can swim in the crystal-clear waters.
WHAT DO I NEED TO BRING?:
• Swimwear
• Drinking water
• Towel
• Suitable footwear for wild-swimming (optional)
• Dry robe or similar if you feel the cold
Your host will meet you at the sauna and guide you through the process. We have a private changing room where you can get ready and leave your belongings. Relax, enjoy an authentic wood-fired sauna, and experience something new.
