Rauhaniemi Public Baths

Rauhaniemen kansankylpylä

A long-established sauna on the shore of Lake Näsijärvi. Jump straight into the lake after sweating, or go winter swimming in an ice hole.

This lakeside public bath opened in 1929. It has one wood-fired sauna and one electric sauna, and a wooden boardwalk leads straight to Lake Näsijärvi. In summer you can swim in the lake. In winter, you can go ice swimming in a hole cut through the frozen lake surface. It is a classic place to experience the Finnish combination of sauna and ice swimming, and there is also a small café. Admission is about €9–10, and towels can be rented. It generally operates from afternoon into the evening and may close on Mondays or Tuesdays, so check the official website before you go.

Getting there: take a bus from the city center, about 15 minutes.
