Finnish Sauna
Long ago, these Nordic wooden cabins were places of birth, healing and purification. In this all-wood space, enveloping warmth emanates from a wood-burning or electric stove.

The Logga is the Village's largest sauna. Made of solid wood, the space is warmed by a stove, topped with stones, and three tiers of benches offering the possibility of varying exposure to the heat. Windows let in natural light, while offering a view of the heart of the Village.
Intense Heat Sauna
Constructed from wood, this type of sauna benefits from natural insulation that optimizes heat accumulation. The intense heat encourages introspection and the elimination of toxins at a speed that only this level of temperature makes possible. Moreover, it greatly raises the body's heat, intensifying the thermal shock.

In the Logga, four types of Aufguss are offered during the day. Snowballs, placed on the stones of the stove, release the fragrance of essential oils, which are dispersed throughout the room by towel movements. The space can accommodate up to 90 people.

The Himalayan salt sauna combines the benefits of gentle heat with those of halotherapy, salt therapy. Air saturated with salt particles provides gentle detoxification. The salt blocks bathe the space in a soft, rosy light that transports you to another world in an instant.

In a steam sauna, also known as a hammam, steam mixed with essential oils creates a dense atmosphere.

The temperature of the humid air, which varies between 40 and 50°C, makes you feel warm differently.
