Your Sauna Journey Begins

Explore SUMA’s three saunas at your own pace and in the order you prefer. Experience the authentic atmosphere of the wood-burning sauna, enjoy panoramic views over the Kemijoki River from the electric sauna, or relax in the softer warmth of the steam sauna.

Your host will be available throughout the experience to guide you, answer questions and help you make the most of each sauna.

Heated Outdoor Pool and Kemijoki River

Available throughout the sauna experience

Between sauna sessions, step outside to relax in the heated outdoor pool and enjoy the surrounding Arctic landscape.

Guests looking for a traditional hot-and-cold contrast may also take a refreshing dip in the Kemijoki River. River swimming is optional and subject to weather, water and safety conditions.

Open-Fire Dining Between Sauna Sessions

Throughout the experience

Fire Journey is not divided into separate sauna and dining sections. Part of the dinner is enjoyed between sauna sessions, allowing you to slow down, gather around the open fire and experience Arctic flavours as part of the journey.

Food is served in stages, creating a relaxed rhythm between sauna, fresh air, fire and dining.
