Community Sauna Sessions

Queenstown's most unique outdoor sauna and cold plunge experience.

Experience Authentic Connection and Wellness in Nature

Sweat in our traditional wood-fired barrel sauna, plunge into the icy cold waters, then relax around the fire for some wholesome fireside chats. Wellspace is building real community through powerful shared experiences. 
With epic natural landscapes, vibey atmosphere and an authentic crew, we attract high-vibe, open minded and fun loving legends who want to feel good, look good and live well.

We believe in the power of nature to foster genuine connections. Our riverside sauna and cold plunge experience promotes mindfulness and health in a fun and welcoming environment.

Open 1:30pm-8:45pm 5 days a week, we invite you and your people to join the growing movement and heal in the heat.

Every other Thursday men's and women's sauna gatherings alternate each week.

How does contrast hydrotherapy work?

Contrast hydrotherapy combines the invigorating effects of hot and cold elements to enhance your wellbeing. Embrace the warmth of our wood-fired sauna, followed by a refreshing plunge into icy cold waters.

🔥 Immerse yourself in the heat and enjoy our 8-person wood-fired barrel sauna. With 15-minute rounds of steam infusion at 80-100 degrees, enjoy silent, guided and social rounds in either our community sessions or as a private group booking.

❄️ Embrace the cold water and awaken your senses! Either plunge into the Kawarau River, brave the 1 - 4 degree ice baths or take a quick cold shower.
An epic way to revive and feel alive!

🌿 Relax in our cosy outdoor lounge, around the fire or in the garden. Rest, re-hydrate and repeat the process. Take in the views with complimentary tea and enjoy Queenstown’s most unique venue and sauna experience.
