Our Story
The journey of PNW Sauna began during a transformative trip to Norway, where we discovered the profound impact of authentic sauna culture. Amidst the fjords and northern lights, we experienced how saunas weren't just about heat – they were about community, wellness, and connection with both nature and each other.
Returning to the Pacific Northwest, we found the perfect location at Atlas Waterfront Park in Coeur d'Alene. With direct access to the pristine Spokane River and surrounded by Idaho's natural beauty, we established our permanent sauna community where traditional Finnish hot-cold therapy comes alive.
Our daily community sessions from 7-10 PM create a welcoming space for recovery, wellness, and connection. Whether you're seeking post-workout recovery, stress relief, or simply the joy of authentic sauna culture with river cooling, our Atlas Waterfront location offers the complete Finnish experience in Idaho's most beautiful setting.
