About
A lakeside sauna resort on the Scharmützelsee in Brandenburg, built around the sauna rather than the pool. There are nine of them, including a theatre sauna staged for show-Aufguss. It has hosted the Aufguss World Championships more than once, with direct lake access for cooling between rounds.
Good to know
- Runs aufguss sessions: a guided löyly ritual where an attendant fans the steam around the room on a schedule.
- Direct lake access: most visitors plunge straight into the water between sauna rounds.
- Set up outdoors: weather is part of the experience, so dress for the walk between cabin and water.
- Restaurant on site, so long sessions are the design. Food is part of the visit rather than a stop on the way home.
- Bar on premises: drinks alongside (or after) the session, and the venue isn't dry like most outdoor sauna setups.
- Pairs the sauna with spa services like massage or a scrub, so a session can sit inside a wider visit.
