Excursion Viking sauna tour at Stavanger
Cruise line: SilverseaDifficulty:
Take a leisurely stroll through the heart of the city, along the serene shores of Gandsfjord, and let the calm waters set the tone for your adventure. Upon arrival at the sauna retreat, you’ll be warmly welcomed by our experienced Sauna Master, ready to guide you through a truly authentic Nordic ritual.
Step into the soothing heat of the sauna and prepare for a traditional Viking Aufguss—an aromatic infusion of essential oils inspired by the rugged beauty of Norway’s landscapes. As the steam rises, carrying the essence of löyly, feel your body and mind awaken, connecting you to the untamed spirit of the Vikings.
When the ritual ends, embrace the Viking way: plunge into the icy waters of the Norwegian fjord or refresh under an invigorating cold shower—just as Norse warriors once did to build strength and resilience. For centuries, this sacred practice revitalized body and soul. Now, it’s your turn to experience its power.
