Myllysaari Lakeside Sauna
Lappeenranta, Finland
About
Lappeenranta's public shore sauna on Myllysaari, a short walk from the harbour and run by LiveLife since 2024. Shifts alternate through the week between women, men and mixed, and it opens year round: a ladder off the jetty leads into an ice hole in winter and into Saimaa in summer. Pay the staff on arrival, no booking.
Good to know
- Cold plunge available on site: use it between rounds for the classic contrast cycle.
- Direct lake access: most visitors plunge straight into the water between sauna rounds.
- Bookable as a private session: rent the room for your group rather than sharing with strangers.
