From the organiser:

Take a sauna with friends in the middle of Schaffhausen's old town!

On January 17 and 18, 2025, the sauna world will meet for the second time in Schaffhausen for the Sauna Marathon!

For the sauna marathon, mobile saunas and hot water pools are set up in the town of Schaffhausen (Switzerland) in particularly beautiful locations such as the historic old town, on the banks of the Rhine, on the Munot, Schaffhausen's landmark, and in the Rhybadi. Historic old town fountains are heated for bathing. The public indoor pools and saunas, hotel facilities and selected private facilities are also open. In total, around 25 saunas and over 10 warm water pools await enthusiastic participants at around 20 locations.

Contrary to what the event name suggests, the sauna marathon is not about speed, but about sociability and enjoyment. Each team should be similar to a visit as many locations as possible.

Thanks to numerous partnerships, the second sauna marathon also promises to be a culinary journey and participants can look forward to great infusions and ceremonies: a freshly tapped Schaffhausen beer is just as much a part of it as a glass of Schaffhausen Pinot Noir and makkara (Finnish for sausage) cooked on the sauna stove by the Finnish Association. From the Siberian banya ritual to relaxing infusions, everything is included!
