Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of services does The Wee Wild Sauna provide?

The Wee Wild Sauna offers a unique sauna experience. Our mobile, wood fired sauna is heated to 70-90 degrees, this combined with cold-water dipping (or just cold air and a splash) are designed to rejuvenate your mind and body.

What should I bring?

Swimwear and two towels – One to sit on for hygiene reasons (and because the benches can be very hot!) and another to dry yourself off.  No neoprene is allowed in the sauna.  Footwear like flip flops are also needed if you plan to take a dip as you will need to cross some stony ground and wet shoes/neoprene socks are recommended if you want to swim.

Plenty of water to rehydrate – you will lose a lot of water through sweating, so ensure you replenish.

Warm clothing to put on after your sauna – Chances are you’ll be lovely and cosy but on winter days you might feel the chill after leaving the sauna.

A swim robe or even bathrobe – if you wish, these are nice to have between sauna rounds.

Please come in comfy clothes to allow for a quick change, this way you also maximise your sauna time. Please travel light, and if possible come ready to jump in! We don’t have a separate changing space, so be prepared to embrace the wild experience and change outside!

We will be right outside the Castle Semple Visitor Centre – you can park in the Castle Semple car park or take the train and walk down from the station, the walk is about a mile or 15-20 minutes.
