Arctic Sauna World is located on the shore of Lake Jerisjärvi, next to the Pallas-Ylläs National Park in connection with Hotel Jeris.
Lake Jerisjärvi is a sacred lake for the Sámi, known for abundance of fish throughout Finnish history.
Arctic Sauna World is a unique place with four elements, earth, water, air and fire combined to form the fifth element, the steaming sauna spirit. In Finnish folk tales, Löyly is synonymous with spirit, and part of our soul in Finnish mythology. For us Finns, the sauna is a place for relaxation, meditation and mental and physical cleansing.
The four elements are known around the world. We have created four saunas for you to balance your elements through our saunas. These saunas; Tapio, Ukko, Ilmatar and Vellamo represent elements through our traditional gods and goddesses.
If you wish, you can book our fifth Repo sauna for private use.

Ukko – The Fire Sauna
Ukko, the king of all gods, Master of weather and thunder. Our most traditional sauna, the smoke sauna belongs to Ukko. During the heating process smoke goes through the whole sauna colouring it black and giving the scent of smoke. This dark atmospheric sauna provides fiery and hot Löyly if you ask for it.
The best way to enjoy löyly is to pour water gently on one spot of the stove. This way the hot steam doesn’t make you feel uncomfortable, but instead gives a slowly increasing relaxing heat.
Tapio – The Earth Sauna
Tapio is the antlered king of the forest, protector of the animals. In this sauna you can find the feeling of earth and forest besides löyly. Sauna is split in to four directions; North, East, South and West. Four massive stoves and the löyly divider in the middle of the sauna is unique character you don’t find in any other sauna.
Tapio is the biggest sauna in the Arctic Sauna World and similar to sauna of Ukko. You can get a really good and hot sweat in this sauna if you wish.
Vellamo – The Water Sauna
Vellamo, the goddess of the water, the ruler of lakes and rivers. Wherever there is water, Vellamo is present. This sauna has a panoramic view over lake Jerisjärvi. Löyly of Vellamo, the steam that rises from the stove is soft and moist giving a gentle heat throughout the sauna. Increased humidity of the sauna brings the presence of water elements into the sauna.
On top of the stove there is bowl which can be filled with water. Slowly dripping water gently brings up the heat and humidity giving you the chance to enjoy the gentle touch of löyly and the scenery of lake Jerisjärvi.
Ilmatar – The Air Sauna
Ilmatar, the goddess of wind and the first mother in the beginning of times.
Sauna of Ilmatar has no fire or thick walls. Infrared heaters inside a traditional kota, Lappish teepee, provides soft and gentle heat. Sauna of Ilmatar is half a sauna, half a relaxing room to enjoy the pure summer nature and windy atmosphere. Sounds of the nature brings you the warm feeling of Lappish summer during the polar night.
Repo sauna – for private relaxation
Tulikettu, the mystical fire fox that lights up the skies with aurora borealis. Sauna of Repo is a two stories panorama sauna located under the open sky of lake Jerisjärvi. Sauna room has a 180 degrees view over lake Jerisjärvi. You can relax and enjoy of night sky through the huge windows at the lounge upstairs.
