ENJOY THE WARMTH OF POHJOLA'S SAUNA CABIN

The legend has it that when arriving in the area where Pohjola is nowadays located, Olli Pohjalainen started off by building a genuine smoke sauna. After that the bathing traditions have continued and stayed the same for over 300 years and are practised in Pohjola to this day.

 

Old stories, respecting the environment and our love for traditional Finnish saunas have become the base for our certified sauna experiences!

Our Saunas

We wish to take care of our unique buildings and the active use of them. After many years of not being used our old barn has now been repurposed to serve as the Pohjola Sauna cabin. Nowadays the old building has 3 separate saunas in it that fits 20-25 people at its best. There's also two separate shower- and dressing rooms, an atmospheric fireplace room and upstairs cabinet.


Let our Sauna elf lead you to the traditions of Finnish sauna! Enjoy the gentle warmth of our steam sauna, try out the traditional Finnish sauna or experience the unique timber sauna that warms up with a wood heated sauna stove. When you're not bathing in the saunas you can soak in our outdoors hot tub or cool off at the deck and be mesmerized by the beautiful and unique nature that surrounds Pohjola.
