About
Sauna Tenryu is a riverside sauna at TAKI Camping Ground on the Atago River in Hamamatsu. Wood-fired barrel and tent saunas sit beside the water, which doubles as the cold plunge, with infinity chairs along the bank for the outdoor rest. The barrel sauna can be booked privately for small groups.
Good to know
- Wood-fired heat: softer, heavier löyly than electric, and the smell of the stove is part of the room.
- On a river: the cold side of the cycle comes from open running water rather than a tub.
- 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.
- 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.
