    • ! Walking/welly boots ! until dry weather. you're going into a wilderness after all…

    • A water bottle

  • To keep the space calm and respectful for everyone:

    • Sit on a towel inside the sauna

      Please bring two towels with you. One to sit on and one to dry yourself with.

    • One ladle at a time

      Ask others before adding water to the stones and pause between ladles. It takes time for the heat to have an effect and too much water kills the fire.

    • Be mindful of others' experiences 

      This is a community space. Please be mindful of your noise level within the sauna. Some saunas are quiet.

    • Shower before you plunge

      Please rinse off your sweat! It helps keep the plunges fresh for everyone.

    • Clothing is optional at the off grid sauna

      It’s traditional to go nude in the sauna for hygiene. We recommend wearing a towel around the waist until you are in the sauna. On Sunday’s we strongly encourage nudity and a quite sauna atmosphere.

    • Essential oils guidance 

      Please don’t put your own essential oils on the rocks. We will supply when needed/desired.

    • This is a sober space

      Feel the natural high!

    • This is a phone-free zone

      Please do not bring your phone inside the sauna. You are welcome to take pictures of oneself and friends but please ask for consent in advance for others.
