Temperature of Saunas - The sauna temperature should be around 85degrees (+/- 10). Everyone feels the heat differently, and the saunas all disperse the heat in different ways, with Willow Tree feeling the hottest and Lakeview feeling less intense. Blue Yonder allows for 2 levels of heat with tiered seating. Listen to your body if you feel too hot, LEAVE the sauna. If your whole group is too hot, leave the door open for a short while.
Please ensure that at least ONE DOOR is shut at any time when exiting and entering to avoid losing heat from the sauna. Keep both doors closed as often as possible. This does not apply to the Shepherd’s hut Sauna.
Ladling water onto the rocks should be done no more frequently than once every 10 minutes. This is to prevent cooling the sauna down.
