About
A queer-led, non-profit sauna in Pollokshields, running sessions from an upcycled horsebox. Cold plunge barrels and outdoor showers sit outside it, and a second accessible mobile sauna is being built. The kind of grassroots operation that makes a neighbourhood better.
Good to know
- Cold plunge available on site: use it between rounds for the classic contrast cycle.
- Set up outdoors: weather is part of the experience, so dress for the walk between cabin and water.
- Urban venue: it sits inside the city rather than at a coast or lake. A session fits into a day in town.
- Women-only sauna: the venue has a women's side or room, or runs set women-only sessions.
- Mixed sauna: men and women share the room, in every session or on set days.
- Swimwear sauna: some or all sessions are taken in swimwear, so pack it.
- Runs aufguss sessions: a guided löyly ritual where an attendant fans the steam around the room on a schedule.
