How to set up a Sauna Tent?

To put up one Sauna Tent Is not complicated - with clear instructions and after mounted the sauna tent a few times it does not take longer than 10 minutes. Below you will find our guide where we go through all the steps and what is important to consider. 

 

1. Choose a suitable location

The first step is to find a place where the tent is stable and secure. We recommend a surface that is at least 1-2 meters from buildings, trees and bushes. This creates a safe environment and ensures that the smoke can be freely ventilated. A flat surface is ideal for giving the tent and stove maximum stability.

 

2. Put up the tent
  • Pull out the sides The five sides of the sauna tent fold out in just a few seconds - quickly pull out each side and see how the tent takes shape. No hassle with tent sticks!
  • Anchor the tent For best stability, use tent sticks and storm ropes to secure the tent. If you plan to have the tent set permanently, you can also place stones or other heavier objects along the tent skirt. It helps the tent to stand firm in all weather.
  • Window and floor If the tent has window protection, you can remove these for more light inputs and views. Also place the floor inside the tent so you have a clean and comfortable surface to sit and stand on.

 

3. The stove
  • Carry the stove into the sauna tent Carry the stove into the tent and fold out the legs. Place the stove on a flat surface. 
  • Mount the parts to the chimney Start by placing the part that has a valve into the stove and then you build on the remaining parts. 
  • The stones Place the stones in the stone basket or on top of the stove. They absorb the heat and help to spread a smooth and comfortable heat as you pour water on them.

 

4. Light the fire and prepare the sauna tent

Now it's time to fire! Light a fire in the stove and allow the heat to be built up in the tent. After about 15-20 minutes you have a pleasant sauna temperature and can start enjoying your Sauna Tent. 

Last step - get ready to best

Before you step into the heat, make sure you have everything you need: benches to sit on, water to pour on the stones, and maybe a towel or two. When everything is in place, you are ready to best!

Heat between the sessions

After each surf session, they gathered in our Sauna Tent. It became a place to regain warmth, rest their muscles, and talk through what they had just experienced. Maybe even reflect on why they truly chase those perfect waves.

And for us, that's exactly what the sauna is all about. Not just heat – but the rhythm of recovery, performance, and community. A place to land.

That our Sauna Tent got to be part of such a journey – together with some of the world's most dedicated surfers – is something we are incredibly proud of.

Who are they?

Freddie Meadows

is Sweden's most experienced professional surfer. After ten years on the competition scene, he chose to follow his heart and start exploring Scandinavian coastlines – with the goal of finding world-class waves in our northern waters.

Nic von Rupp

Hailing from Portugal, he is known for surfing some of the biggest waves ever at Nazaré. He is a multiple championship winner, documentary filmmaker, and has twice been nominated for the World Surf League's "Big Wave Performance of the Year."

Andrew Cotton

Born in the United Kingdom, he is a pioneer of Big Wave Surfing in Europe. He has towed surfing legends into record-breaking waves, gained global recognition, and pushed the boundaries of what British surfing can be – while balancing his career with life as a parent of young children.

Sauna + surf = an obvious combination

There is something special about the contrast between cold and heat, performance and stillness. The chaos of the waves meets the calm of the tent. And for those who surf in Arctic conditions, the sauna is not a luxury – it is a necessity.

Where will the next wave happen? We don’t know. And we’re not supposed to know. But one thing is certain: our Sauna Tent will be there.
