In the bouna sauna, where soft indirect lighting creates a modern atmosphere, water is poured onto the heat source at regular intervals, filling the room with gentle steam. Let yourself be carried by the quietly playing jazz and the changing seasons of Karuizawa beyond the windows, then let the cold bath, luxuriously filled with spring water from the Wild Bird Forest, gently embrace your pleasantly perspiring body. After a crisp, refreshing cool-down, head to the outdoor air bath and feel the clear highland breeze. It leads you into a deep state of relaxation, as if you are blending into nature itself.
