Bastu Paus, Floating sauna on barge in Arriesjön, Sweden

Bastu Paus is a floating sauna housed on a barge in Arriesjön lake, fitted with a wood-fired chamber and traditional stone heating elements that reach about 85 degrees Celsius. The vessel accommodates up to 12 people per session with separate changing areas.

This floating sauna brings together Nordic maritime design with Finnish thermal bathing traditions, merging water travel and heat therapy. The combination reflects how Scandinavian bathing culture has evolved through regional influences.

Swedish sauna customs here blend with German steam rituals where attendants use rhythmic towel movements and aromatic oils to enhance the heat. This combination creates a shared experience that brings people together in the warm chamber.

The sauna runs on weekends and offers an authentic experience on the water with direct access from the shore. Visitors should prepare for a gently rocking vessel and bring warm clothes for the walk to reach the lakeside location.

The experience here blends relaxation in heat with the sensation of being on water, mixing both elements in an unexpected way. This dual nature makes each visit something special that you would not easily find on dry land.
