Outdoor Saunas in London
An outdoor sauna gives you somewhere to actually cool down between rounds — a garden, a yard, a terrace or a stretch of towpath — instead of a corridor. That contrast is most of the point, and it is what separates the venues on this page from a heat room tucked inside a changing block. SaunaMap lists 62 verified venues in London with outdoor space.
The mix is broad. At one end are the wood-fired barrel and cabin saunas that drove London's recent sauna revival, set up in car parks, on canal banks and in park corners, where the cold-down is a bucket shower and a bench in the open air. At the other are hotel and health-club spas whose outdoor element is a heated terrace or garden lounge. Several sit on the water, and a handful are on rooftops.
Outdoor sessions are weather-exposed by design, so bring a robe and something for your feet, and check opening hours before travelling — the smaller wood-fired sites often run limited days rather than daily. Browse the venues below, ordered by popularity.
Looking for a rooftop sauna?
Rooftop saunas are a subset of the outdoor saunas on this page — a roof terrace is outdoor space, so all 17 of London's rooftop venues are already listed below. If the skyline view is the point, browse them on their own page.
