Introduction
Around the world, particularly in Scandinavian countries, saunas have been used for thousands of years for their social and therapeutic benefits. Each Backcountry Scandinavian barrel sauna kit can be paired with either a wood-fired or electric heater of your choice.
Easy Use & Setup
Our easy-to-follow instructions for self-assembly make setting up your barrel sauna a breeze. No special tools or carpentry skills are required, and our instructions are written with the DIY customer in mind. All lumber pieces are pre-cut, and assembly typically takes less than 3-4 hours. Upgrade your backyard or recreational property with a therapeutic Scandinavian barrel sauna. Our Wooden Barrel Saunas are available in various sizes, in Canadian Red Cedar or Nordic White Pine, and with or without a porch.
Sauna Design
The Scandinavian barrel sauna is held in place by sturdy stainless steel bands and minimal fasteners (see photos). This system allows the lumber staves to expand and contract to form a tight seal, and the unit sits on polymer support cradles that loft the sauna’s undercarriage, off the ground (see photo). The Scandinavian barrel sauna design is noted for its efficiency, even distribution of heat, and visual appeal. The front sauna porch creates a visually appealing and useful outside sitting area — a place to hold towels or drinks or to serve as a relaxing place to cool off between sauna rounds.
Materials
Our cedar saunas are made from 100% Canadian Western Red Cedar. The door hinges, heater, fasteners, and bands are made of stainless steel. The sauna comes with a tempered, tinted, self-closing full glass door.
Performance
These saunas will heat quickly--to as much as 195 F (90 Celsius) in under an hour. Every Backcountry barrel sauna comes with either a wood-fired or electric stainless steel heater, water bucket & ladle, sauna rocks, and combination thermometer/hygrometer so that you may begin enjoying the authentic sauna experience as soon as the assembly is complete.
Atmosphere
Soft interior lighting, opposite-facing benches that allow bathers to enjoy good conversation, and a sturdy heater fence made from aromatic cedar or pine scents, all promote the authentically relaxing Scandinavian sauna experience.
Easy Canada Wide Shipping
We ship our saunas all across Canada and the United States to sauna enthusiasts who enjoy the wellness benefits of heat and steam!

TOULE
Available in 6 kW & 9 kW Models: $786 – $949 CAD
For the price point vs quality, it doesn't get much better than this! This heater is the best bang for your buck both in its reliability and the features of this specific model (off-board digital controls, timers, etc.).
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
|
|
HARVIA KIP
Available in 6 kW & 8 kW Models: $1 199 – $1 399 CAD
Harvia has been the biggest name in sauna heaters for over 70 years! The Harvia FLB model, made by Harvia in Finland, is a traditional Finnish-style wall-mounted sauna heater. What this one lacks in special and aesthetic features; it makes up for in heat and getting the job done.
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
|
|
Harvia Cilindro
The Harvia Cilindro heater, known for its unique design featuring a massive stone quantity, offers a blend of gentle and powerful steam options. It's ideal for those seeking a versatile sauna experience, capable of creating a traditional sauna atmosphere with the convenience of electric heating.
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
|
|
With its modern yet traditional functionality, the Harvia Cilindro is perfect for sauna users who enjoy customizing their sauna sessions with varying steam intensity, all while adding a touch of elegance to their sauna space.
HUUM HIVE CLIFF
Available in 6 kW, 9 kW, or 10.5 kW Models
Want a lot of thermal mass but still have a quicker heat-up time? That’s exactly what the HUUM CLIFF delivers. Its tall, open column exposes every stone directly to the elements, so the 165 lb rock load races to temperature faster than bulkier heaters with even more stone. The result is a rich, wood-fired feel powered by clean, reliable electricity—with far less waiting around before you step inside. Sleek, sculptural, and space-saving, the CLIFF turns your sauna wall into an eye-catching accent while surrounding you in deep, lingering warmth.
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
|
|
HUUM HIVE MINI
Available in 6 kW, 9 kW, or 10.5 kW Models
These are one of our best sellers! The HUUM line of products offers a more traditional sauna experience by limiting metal and increasing total rock surface area. This provides a closer wood-fired experience with the reliability of electricity. Many of our customers prefer the design of the HUUM as it is an accent piece against the backdrop of your high-quality wood sauna.
| Pros | Cons |
|---|---|
|
|
HUUM DROP
Available in 6 kW and 9 kW Models
Very similar to the HUUM Hive and HUUM Hive Mini. The HUUM Drop offers a round design that softens and livens up the angular interior of a classic sauna, giving it a touch of elegance. But DROP isn’t only about the looks. This compact wall-mounted heater can actually fit up to 55 kg of stones, exceeding most wood-burning stoves and guaranteeing long-lasting steam.
