Wild Sauna Lærdal

Wild Sauna Lærdal is located by the turquoise Lærdalsfjorden, a side arm of Sognefjorden, about a ten-minute drive from central Lærdal. From the panoramic window you look straight out at mountains and fjord, and your own bathing dock takes you right into the clear water.

The sauna is self-service: the access code arrives by text message and email, and the heater is remote-controlled so it's warm at your agreed time. Choose a drop-in spot alongside others or rent the whole sauna privately for up to eight people. A small changing room and outdoor shower are right nearby, and parking is just across the road.

Open 365 days a year – a perfect stop between the stave church and the fjord villages for anyone who wants to experience a wilderness sauna on Sognefjorden.
