Saturday smoke sauna trip - From the nature trail to the bonfires

Welcome to the relaxing warmth of an authentic, traditional and award-winning smoke sauna! Stop by for a refreshing hike along the nature trail, relax in the atmospheric fire and take a dip in the shore water or open water of Lake Poskijärvi. Sauna coffee, snacks, refreshments and sauna sausage are sold in the hut.

An atmospheric smoke sauna experience in the peace of nature

In the dim and warm smell of smoke, your body is freed from the extra burden and replaced by a feeling of rest and relaxation, but still energetic.

Each smoke sauna is unique and has its own character. The story of the Kinkamo smoke sauna is told directly by the host couple, who will personally welcome you to the twice award-winning sauna, built by their own hands by the International Smoke Sauna Club. At the same time, you will be given a brief introduction to the smoke sauna culture. You'll hear about the wood the bear scratched when the sauna was being built and learn, for example, why the water in a smoke sauna is not thrown into the sauna but drained into the heater .

The Kinkamo area has been called Keuruu Lapland because of its warm atmosphere and beautiful nature. Before taking a bath or a shower, you can relax on the nearby nature trail, and for the little ones there's a few hundred metres of elf trail. From the sauna you can take a dip in Lake Poskijärvi or, in winter, in the refreshing open water. A sausage or other snacks are an integral part of the sauna experience. Sauna coffee, snacks, refreshments and sauna sausage are sold in the hut.
