Lake Minnewashta
Reset. Refresh. Refocus.
Experience the ultimate rejuvenation at Sauna Camp on Lake Minnewashta, where the power of fire and ice comes together in a setting designed to challenge your body and mind. Warm up in locally built saunas, stoked to 150-200 degrees, before plunging into the icy waters of the lake—a contrast therapy that will leave you feeling alive and invigorated. Whether you're new to the practice or a seasoned pro, we will be guided through each exhilarating round, ensuring an extraordinary experience. The day includes breath work tutorials, multiple rounds of sauna and cold plunging, and an open fire chef prepared meal to cap off your adventure.
