About
Sauna Finnika is a seasonal wood-fired sauna on the shore of Lake Neuchâtel at Serrières. The twelve-seat cabin sits in a trailer at the water's edge, so bathers can cool off in the lake between rounds. A heated tent serves as reception and rest space, and the sauna runs through the winter.
Good to know
- Direct lake access: most visitors plunge straight into the water between sauna rounds.
- Wood-fired heat: softer, heavier löyly than electric, and the smell of the stove is part of the room.
- Set up outdoors: weather is part of the experience, so dress for the walk between cabin and water.
- Set in nature, away from the city, so bring a car or plan the transfer in advance.
- Mobile operator: the sauna travels, so the location is part of the booking. Check the current site before you arrive.
- Nude sauna: some or all sessions are taken without swimwear.
- Swimwear sauna: some or all sessions are taken in swimwear, so pack it.
