In Melsomvik’s sauna, you can enjoy both winter bathing and a warm sauna experience all year round!
The sauna opened on February 7, 2022, and is the result of a community effort and a joint fundraising campaign by Melsomvik Vel, Nmu, local residents, and other generous donors.
The sauna can be rented for a 2-hour session. During that time, you’re responsible for heating it up, enjoying your session, and tidying up afterward. Payment is made via Vipps.
Remember to bring:
– A towel to sit on
– Swimwear
– 3 liters of fresh water (only fresh water must be used!)
– Firewood (approx. 8 logs for 2 hours)
– Fire starters, matches
– Drinking water
Important: You must be at least 18 years old to book the sauna. Younger guests are welcome if accompanied by a responsible adult over 18.
Sauna Rules
