About
A wood-fired Russian banya on Lake Głębokie, beside the city bathing beach on the north-west edge of Szczecin. A saunamistrz leads open sessions, with birch or oak venik treatments as an option. Bathers cool off in the lake, and a smaller panoramic sauna with a lake view is hired privately.
Good to know
- Wood-fired heat: softer, heavier löyly than electric, and the smell of the stove is part of the room.
- Direct lake access: most visitors plunge straight into the water between sauna rounds.
- Set in nature, away from the city, so bring a car or plan the transfer in advance.
- Runs aufguss sessions: a guided löyly ritual where an attendant fans the steam around the room on a schedule.
- Bookable as a private session: rent the room for your group rather than sharing with strangers.
- 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.
- Nude sauna: some or all sessions are taken without swimwear.
