Kroken Sauna is a wood-fired outdoor sauna experience set in the hills near Lillehammer. The sauna offers an authentic, back-to-basics approach where the crackling wood fire heats the stones and the surrounding nature provides both the scenery and the cold plunge.
The location near Lillehammer means guests are surrounded by forests and mountain views, with lake access for cooling off between sauna rounds. The wood-fired stove creates a wonderful aroma and a gentle, enveloping heat that feels distinctly different from electric saunas. Private bookings are available for groups wanting an exclusive experience.
This is an excellent choice for those who prefer a more rustic and intimate sauna setting away from the crowds. The area offers great hiking and skiing opportunities depending on the season. Kroken Sauna is best reached by car and advance booking is recommended.
