How We Crafted the Outdoor Spa Experience at Huso Lodge

Just as the world was grappling with the onset of indoor Covid lockdowns, we were busy envisioning an expansive outdoor sanctuary of wellness at Huso Lodge. Recognizing the profound benefits of nature, we set out to create an outdoor spa unlike any other.

Our Outdoor Spa Vision

Our vision was clear: to seamlessly blend the restorative power of heat and cold with the breathtaking beauty of the rugged Norwegian landscape. Each large cottage at Huso Lodge now features its own private barrel sauna and hot tub, offering guests the luxury of relaxation just steps from their doorstep.

To allow guests to fully immerse themselves in nature’s embrace, we carefully selected scenic locations across the property—often nestled beside pristine lakes or overlooking majestic mountain peaks—to place additional wood-fired barrel saunas and hot tubs. Imagine the thrill of stepping out of a steaming sauna and plunging into the invigorating waters of a lake, surrounded by the serenity of untouched wilderness.

But to invite our guests to truly immerse themselves in nature’s full embrace, we handpicked unique, scenic spots across the property – often nestled beside pristine lakes or overlooking majestic mountain peaks – to artfully install our spa locations. Imagine the thrill of stepping out of a steaming sauna and plunging into the invigorating waters of a lake, surrounded by the serenity of untouched wilderness.

The Health Benefits

Cold plunging isn’t just about indulgence – it’s about harnessing the proven health benefits of cold water immersion, especially when combined with sauna sessions after active days exploring the outdoors. From reducing inflammation and improving circulation to boosting metabolic function, enhancing the immune system, and promoting deeper, more restful sleep, the benefits are extensive.

At Huso Lodge, we believe true wellness is found in the harmony of nature and its raw elements: heat, cold, and unfiltered beauty. Come experience it for yourself or watch the video below.
