The log cabin sauna: wood as far as the eye can see.

Visually, this type of sauna is always a highlight: due to the good insulating properties of thick log cabin planks, no additional insulation is needed on the walls of the free-standing log cabin sauna. This means that an optimal exchange of air can take place without being hindered by vapour barrier membranes and insulation layers.

Profile

Type: classic Finnish sauna
Temperature: hot, 80-120° (as much as the heater can provide)
Humidity: low, approx. 20%.
Recommended length of stay: 10-12 minutes

Special features

• Outdoor or garden sauna
• completely made of wood, mostly logs between 10 and 30cm in diameter
• Popularly used as an infusion sauna
  
  Difference to the classic Finnish sauna

The log sauna is actually a subspecies of the Finnish sauna. Due to the stronger outdoor reference, sometimes a slightly increased humidity.

Effect

• Flushing out waste products
• Beneficial for the respiratory tract
• Strengthens the body's defences (e.g. against colds)

Playing with fire

Especially for remote locations, it is a good idea to operate the sauna with a wood-burning stove, completely without electricity or water supply. Especially in complete seclusion at a remote lake or in the middle of the forest, you can enjoy a sauna in the great outdoors. The burning wood removes the last moisture from the air.
