Oslo Badstuforening Sukkerbiten
Sukkerbiten servering, 0150 Oslo, Norge 2 hours
Right by the Opera House, these saunas float on the water. It’s nice and toasty inside while the fjord stays chilly, and the vibe is relaxed enough that you might end of chatting with the people on the bench next to you. It's all about switching off and feeling the temperature changes. There's something special about sitting in the heat looking out at the Oslo fjord before gathering the courage to jump in.
Why it works
You forget everyday stress the moment you put on your swimwear. Jumping into cold water together is the ultimate icebreaker.
