A real sauna. In your pack.

180°F steam.
38°F plunge.
Backcountry.

The Shvitz UL is a complete backcountry sauna system — shelter, folding titanium wood stove, and rock tray — light enough to carry deep into the backcountry. Pitch it lakeside and warm up after a cold plunge in an alpine lake.

Sauna culture was never meant for strip malls.

For a thousand years, the sauna lived next to cold water and open sky. We're just making it light enough to carry back there. If that sentence does something to you — you're who we built this for.

How it works

Fire, rocks, water.

1

Fire the stove

Pitch it at the shoreline in minutes. The folding titanium stove burns deadfall while rocks heat on the tray.

2

Go for a swim

While the sauna heats, swim out into the alpine lake — the cold is the point.

3

Warm up & steam

Come back, ladle water on the hot rocks, and thaw out in real steam. Repeat until dark.
