Oslo Badstuforening, Langkaia

Experience Oslo like a local. Many locals buy a membership. You can reserve a private sauna or just drop-in to use the communal areas. There are showers, horse troughs you can use to dunk yourself, decks to sunbathe, and changing rooms. The Nordic way is to take a shower, go in the sauna and get sweaty, then jump into the ocean. Repeat three times for maximum health benefits. Everyone is wearing bathing suits. The views of the harbor are magnificent. Photos are of the saunas and one of the sunbathing decks. Make sure you bring water to drink and a towel. There are food kiosks near by if you want ice cream or something else. No alcohol allowed.

Really awesome! Bathing in the cold Fjord, taking a quick shower and then jump into a gorgeous wood sauna that floats on the water! You have changing rooms and drinking water and can add fire wood or water steam as you like. Note that it is a mixed (though dressed) sauna, but you can also rent a whole sauna for you or your group.

This was one of the highlights of my trip to Oslo. It is right on the waterfront with a great view of the Opera House. When I arrived the staff was super friendly and check in was easy. A slight tip, the changing rooms can be crowded and I would possibly arrive in your swimsuit to just save time. Once I got into the sauna it was wonderful. The sauna added with the beauty of the water gave a great cycle to letting the sauna do it's work and then taking a dip in the fjord. Not to mention the views are breathtaking. I talked to a few people and found that it's quite popular with locals as well. I can't recommend this enough and would easily go again when I make it to Oslo next.

What a fantastic way to start the day! Beautiful location for these floating, wood-fired saunas opposite the stunning Oslo Opera House

Floating saunas with stunning view of the Opera. You can also cool down in the water of the see below. Where do you get that? Absolutely fantastic experience. Very helpful and friendly staff. They lent me the locker for free. You can also rent towels there. Highly recommended.

I can’t say enough good things about this cool place. Great facilities right on Oslo harbor. Nice and helpful staff

Right in the centre of Oslo, the wooden saunas overlooking the National Opera House are something incredible! The smell of burning wood, women with bathing suits in March and modern architecture made of glass and steel - only possible in Norway.

A good sauna in a great location. The only problem is there is no toilet, so 4 stars not 5.
