About
Secret Sauna is a social sauna on the back patio of Patufet, a bar on SE Belmont Street. A wood-burning Narvi stove heats the cedar sauna, and the outdoor showers run as cold as you like. Between rounds, guests sit by the fire pit with tea or a drink from the bar.
Good to know
- 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.
- Urban venue: it sits inside the city rather than at a coast or lake. A session fits into a day in town.
- Bar on premises: drinks alongside (or after) the session, and the venue isn't dry like most outdoor sauna setups.
- Swimwear sauna: some or all sessions are taken in swimwear, so pack it.
