Pure Experience

Our sauna in Bern is located directly on the banks of the Aare, surrounded by picturesque nature. The Zehendermätteli is a unique place to relax. A refreshing cool down after the sauna is incomparable here.

The sauna in Bern

The sauna has space for 4 people. When you make a reservation, you rent it exclusively for you and your loved ones. A wood-burning stove heats the sauna. The temperature in the sauna reaches around 80-90 degrees. Everything else you need to know for a visit to the sauna box can be found here.

Location

Our sauna is very close to you. It is located at Reichenbachstrasse 161 in 3004 Bern. You can get from Bern train station to the Bern Tiefenau train/bus station (bus 21 or S9) in 10 minutes by public transport. From there it takes 20 minutes to walk to Zehendermätteli. If you come by car, you can use the free parking spaces right next to the restaurant. Please note: Sometimes the sat nav directs you over the Aare, make sure you drive via Bern Tiefenau.

Everything about visiting the sauna

Before the sauna

Reservation

Reserve the sauna online and select your preferred date and time. We recommend that you plan at least two hours for a relaxing sauna experience. You will receive your access code by email before your booking begins. In your confirmation email, you will also receive a link to the booking calendar so that you can check whether a booking has already been made before you. If no one has booked before you, you will have to light the fire yourself. Fill the oven with 4-5 logs right at the start, then it will take around 45 minutes until it is hot enough. You are welcome to come 45-60 minutes before the appointment and light the fire. You will not be charged for this time. Before you light the fire for the first time, empty the ash box under the fire pit! The ash bucket is outside.

Bring along

Don't forget to bring two towels, swimwear, flip-flops and drinks. Please come already showered.

Location information

The way to the sauna is signposted from the Zehendermätteli. The keys are in the key box on the back of the sauna car on the left (code in the confirmation email). Toilets and public parking spaces are available at the Zehendermätteli. You can find further details about the Zehendermätteli location here. We recommend arriving by bike or public transport.

During the sauna

Locker room

You can change and store your personal belongings in the sauna anteroom. You can store your clothes and shoes in the box outside. Important: Do not leave anything lying around in the sauna while you are in the sauna (no plastic items).

Temperature

Our sauna is heated with a wood stove and has a constant temperature of between 80 and 90 degrees. You can regulate the humidity yourself by pouring water onto the sauna stones. Please remember to always put a cloth underneath to protect the wood from sweat. Important: Close the door of the stove.

Infusion water

You can take the water for the infusions directly from the Aare. Make sure that there are no natural materials such as leaves or wood in the water. We thank you for filling the infusion bucket for the next guests. Important: Leave the infusion bucket at the bottom and do not place it up next to the oven.

After the sauna

Cool

After your sauna session, there are various ways to cool down. Cooling off in the Aare is at your own risk. Alternatively, you can relax and cool down in the fresh air outside the sauna.

Cleaning up text

Your help in keeping the sauna clean is greatly appreciated. Please clean the floor with the broom provided, take all rubbish with you and empty the foot cleaning basin. Please lock the door after your stay and put the key in the designated key deposit. Please lock this as well afterwards.
