Gåsgrund Sauna

Description

City of Espoo – Gåsgrund recreational island+

Description

Gåsgrund Sauna is a free, self-service wood-fired sauna on Gåsgrund, a recreational island off Espoo in Uusimaa. The City of Espoo's Gåsgrund page lists cooking shelters, firewood, dry toilets, mooring, dog access on leash, and seasonal archipelago boat service for the island. Use of the sauna itself is free; you heat the stove yourself and take firewood from the island's grill shelters, which the city keeps supplied. A long-running visitor write-up on Saunailta describes seating for about four or five, a small window above the stove, no shower (cooling off in the sea instead), and a nearby well for löyly water that is not recommended for drinking even when boiled. The same account notes outdoor seating, a small fire ring, and tables beside the sauna. Nothing is sold on the island, so bring drinking water and food. Nearby on the island you will find facilities such as Gåsgrund Saaristovenelaituri, Gåsgrund Vierasvenelaituri, Gåsgrund / Keittokatos, Gåsgrund Nuotiopaikka 3, and Gåsgrund Grillikota 2. UUVI notes shallow northern shores that suit kayaks, mooring buoys, and that camping is allowed.

Getting there

Reach Gåsgrund by your own boat, by kayak to the shallow north shore, or on Espoo's summer scheduled archipelago boats from the Otaniemi and Kivenlahti route lines; harbours and timetables are on Visit Espoo's public boats page, and fares plus season dates on the City of Espoo's scheduled archipelago boats page. From the ferry landing the sauna is a short walk inland.

Good to know

Dogs are allowed on the island but must be kept on a leash. For full boat rules, cancellations, and the exact operating calendar, see the City of Espoo's scheduled archipelago boats page.

Price info

Sauna use is free. Scheduled archipelago boat travel is paid; our earlier records noted about 7 € for a ferry trip — confirm the current fare table on the City of Espoo's scheduled archipelago boats page.

How to pay

Pay for archipelago boat tickets through the channels described on the City of Espoo's scheduled archipelago boats page. The sauna has no separate fee.
