Smoke sauna
The provided text discusses the presence and appeal of a smoke sauna (suitsusaun) at the Laukatagu holiday village. It emphasizes that while smoke saunas have become less common for practical reasons in modern times, they continue to be a cherished and authentic sauna experience at Laukatagu.
In a smoke sauna, the heating is done in an open hearth, and the smoke escapes through openings in the walls. The sauna is heated for nearly the entire day, and afterward, it is properly ventilated. Guests do not add more wood to the stove while using the sauna.
The Laukataguse smoke sauna is a traditional structure built with a genuine grass roof and made from lime wood. It’s noted as the oldest building in the holiday village. This text highlights the enduring popularity of smoke saunas among those who appreciate the unique and authentic sauna experience they provide.
What does renting a smoke sauna entail?
Taking a steam bath in an authentic Estonian smoke sauna made of lime wood has become one of the most popular experiences at Laukatagu. Renting a smoke sauna offers the opportunity to enjoy a steam session just like our ancestors did. Afterward, you can jump directly into the refreshing pond (in the winter, there’s an ice hole), savor the sunset on the sauna terrace, and relax your body and mind.
In fact, after five rounds in the sauna, there’s usually no need for a traditional wash. If you wish to wash, you can pour water over yourself from a bucket or take a dip in the pond, and your body will be entirely clean both inside and out. The gentle steam in the smoke sauna doesn’t scorch the skin, but it naturally induces sweating. By taking steam and using a bath whisk while periodically dousing with water, you can cleanse your body without the need for modern bathing products.
It’s said that those who haven’t been to a smoke sauna haven’t truly experienced the essence of a genuine steam bath. If you want to experience it for yourself, then renting a smoke sauna is just right for you!

- Snacks in the sauna available for an extra charge.
- Steam sessions last for 4-5 hours.
- Whisking and washing are done in the same room.
- In the winter, there’s an ice hole.
- In the summer, you can refresh yourself in the invigorating pond with a diving platform.
