Overview
Prepare for a thrilling experience of one of the most genuine Swedish traditions Sauna and Ice-bathing.
Just 20 minutes outside the city of Stockholm, in the forest, is a small lake and a local hot wooden Sauna.
In the winter the lake is covered by ice and its been a long tradition to enjoy the health benefits of the contrast of the hot and cold that makes you feel alive and energized.
