How to use the sauna!
In the summer: Take the cable raft out to the sauna.
In the winter: Walk out on the ice.
You will find the key box to the left of the door. You get the code when you have booked.
Light the fire with wood - approx. 15-30 minutes - depending on the season. Watch out for embers and the risk of fire!
The valve above the bench must be closed for the best temperature.
Use a towel as a base in the sauna. Therefore, bring 2 towels.
All swimming takes place at your own risk. Diving always entails great risk! DO NOT jump or dive from the roof and raft! The tide goes up and down a lot!
If you feel any discomfort, please leave the sauna.
Brush and clean the sauna after use! It should be at least as clean as when you arrived.
Please take your trash home.
Always lock the door and put the key back in the key box.
Put the cable raft back so that it does not float towards land.
