Natural peat treatment in the world’s largest smoke sauna is a fun and health promoting experience. Peat is 100% natural ingredient, which contains various nutrients and minerals. Peat used as a mask on your skin helps to clean and soften the skin as well as to clean metabolic waste from the body. Remember hydration: drink 1-2 litres of water before peat sauna treatment. 

This treatment is not recommended for those suffering from acute heart, vascular or cancer problems and not suitable during pregnancy or nursing.

PRIVATE PEAT SAUNA IS AVAILABLE ONLY FOR 15-60 PERSONS´ GROUPS.

A guide will explain every step to the guests during the whole process and stay with your group until the peat treatment is done. Begin the treatment by washing yourself and go to the sauna for about 10 minutes. Have a shower again and spread the warm peat on your skin. Go back to the sauna for 20 minutes (remember hydration, have some water/ mineral water while sitting in the sauna during the peat treatment). Take a shower and wash off the peat. After that you may go swimming and sauna again, if you like. 

Tea, coffee and bread are served after the sauna around a campfire at the sauna porch. 

Cost: Prices according to the number of participants.

Duration: 2 hours (peat treatment takes 40 minutes)

Notice: It is essential to drink plenty of water during the day before the peat sauna. We recommend to take your swimming shoewear with you.
