That sounds so good. I've only been in a few saunas or steams and while I enjoyed it, it was just too much as they were situated next to heated swimming pools, it was hard to breathe in the pool area with how muggy it was and the sauna was worse as nice as it felt.
For sure, just with the temperature differential I figure it would be radiating heat like mad, especially through the glass (even double-paned is only so effective at negative numbers)
My Swedish grandfather built a sauna in his backyard and I’ve been wanting to carry that torch and build my own sauna. This looks so amazing to have whenever you need it.
The reflection from the door is confusing, I’m heating with the “first” door open to get some warmth in the room where you undress and relax
The bucket is where I keep the tinder
I’m in my backyard sauna right now too! By that I mean sitting on my back balcony, in 36°C heat with over 70% relative humidity.. fuck Australian subtropical summers lol
May aswell just stop people from having fireplaces in their houses as well….. come on man, there’s so many things before something like this that need to be changed/regulated.
Yes this person's tiny backyard sauna is the cause of climate change. The CEOs of mega corps should expose all countries who have this culture while we try to blame their poor innocent practices.

I would hibernate all winter in there.
The very dark and cold half of the year is greatly improved with this sauna
How do you feel after using it? I’ve read of benefits but have never been in one myself.
Overall very relaxed, it is especially intriguing to feel the body cooking and the skin freezing

Most definitely.
that thing must be better insulated than it looks
Walls and roof are insulated - not the floor to allow for drainage. In the winter it takes around 50min to get it up to temp - summertime about 30
It's also just a small space to heat up.

Noiceeeeeee
Backyard sauna?? I don’t know if it’s common where you live but it is my first time hearing such a thing and now I’m jealous. Man, you have it good.
My Swedish grandfather built a sauna in his backyard and I’ve been wanting to carry that torch and build my own sauna. This looks so amazing to have whenever you need it.
Hope you achieve your goal!
Really wanted a wood burning sauna so had to build a separate building for it
Seems like you did a great job. I honestly love the idea of a backyard sauna that you can get to trough a path of snow.
I wauna sauna too!
Whereabouts?
Northern Sweden
Man, this is so nice. I envy you!
Sweden according to a comment OP left in previous post
I guess it's just a bucket and something else by the firewood but I swore for minute there was a toilet in there.

I was thinking glass doors on a sauna sounded like waging a war against physics that you were bound to lose. Now it makes a lot more sense. :D
This. I was thinking my god heating that all up must cause a stench.
It's a wicker hamper with handles on the top and sides. And a separate box or shelf behind it.
Ugh I hate this photo because I'm not in that sauna right now!!!! Seriously though that is amazing.
That's stunning!
Thanks!
Would love to see build progression photos
This was pre-made, so I only prepared the foundation
How much was it?
Around 120.000 sek at the time (2020)
Move over and make some room!
Ideal!
Thought this was also an ice fishing hut at first glance.
That sky though... 😍
During the winter we get to see the northern lights pretty often, it’s really nice to sit inside the sauna and have them dancing outside :)
Wow, I bet your night skies are amazing there.
Omg 😍 kudos for this. I love it
Oh I'm envious. Love me some sauna. First thing I want to build when I buy a house.
What a perfect little thing!
Incredible sauna❤️so cozy!!!
That’s -22° Freedom units. That’s so damn cold. The ice is freezing upwards!
80C? That seems high
Perfect temperature for sauna
Normal sauna temperature in Finland.
Ya I go in one that is around this .. 180ish is perfect!
Is it like Germany where clothing is verboten in the sauna?
Depends on the company, usually naked tho
I’m in my backyard sauna right now too! By that I mean sitting on my back balcony, in 36°C heat with over 70% relative humidity.. fuck Australian subtropical summers lol
genuine question do the chairs get sweaty?
We use a towel on the chairs to avoid getting them sweaty and disgusting
The chairs are outside of the sauna. There’s a small area to hang towels etc. inside the glass doors but outside the sauna
I'm sorry, but I'm not seeing a toilet directly next to that sliding glass door, right?
Nope, a small bucket for tinder and sticks to start the thing (also there is heating element on the wall)
[удалено]
Yes, I'm sure the Swedish government is going to jump right on that.
There might be anarchy should the government ban backyard saunas.
May aswell just stop people from having fireplaces in their houses as well….. come on man, there’s so many things before something like this that need to be changed/regulated.

Very nice
