Floating sauna on Lake Mjosa in Lillehammer

Lillehammer, Eastern Norway

Badstufergen is a floating sauna experience on Lake Mjosa in Lillehammer, the charming town famous for hosting the 1994 Winter Olympics. The sauna ferry concept combines a traditional sauna session with the beauty of Norway’s largest lake, creating a memorable wellness experience in an iconic setting.

The sauna heats up on the floating platform while guests enjoy views of the Lillehammer hills and the vast expanse of Lake Mjosa. Between rounds, a dip in the lake is the perfect way to cool down. The experience is especially magical during winter when the surrounding mountains are covered in snow and the lake may have ice forming at its edges.

Lillehammer is a popular year-round destination about two hours north of Oslo, and Badstufergen adds a unique dimension to any visit. The sauna is located along the waterfront and is easily accessible on foot from the town center. Advance booking is recommended.
