Soria Moria Sauna is nestled in the dramatic Telemark landscape near Dalen, offering an outdoor sauna experience surrounded by towering mountains and deep valleys. Named after the mythical castle in Norwegian folklore, this sauna lives up to its fairytale reputation with a setting that feels both remote and magical.
The outdoor sauna provides sweeping views of the surrounding wilderness. After heating up, guests can cool off in the nearby lake, completing the traditional hot-cold cycle in a pristine natural setting. The air is clean, the water is crystal clear, and the silence of the mountains creates a meditative atmosphere.
Dalen is located at the end of the Telemark Canal and is worth visiting for its scenery alone. The sauna adds a wonderful wellness dimension to a trip through this lesser-known part of Norway. Best visited in combination with hiking or exploring the historic Dalen Hotel nearby.
