Come and warm up in a traditional Finnish sauna in Rovaniemi, enjoying its gentle heat! The bravest can try ice swimming in the cold pool next to the sauna. As you ascend the wide steps to the pool, you can choose how deep to go—just dip your toes or immerse yourself up to your neck. After a refreshing swim, it’s wonderful to return to the warmth of the sauna. If you’re lucky, you might even witness the northern lights during your visit!

Sinetän Saunahuone is located in Rovaniemi’s country-side, only 30 km from Santa Claus Village. The sauna is private for you and your group or family. We provide everything you need for your sauna experience, also a swimming suit if you want but it’s not necessary.

In addition to the sauna, we also have a salt room, which is used to relieve respiratory symptoms or skin conditions. You can combine a visit to both the sauna and the salt room, with the experience lasting a total of 2,5 to 3 hours. Now that is luxury!

The sauna is available all year round:
