True Scandinavian sauna experience from the comfort of your own home.
The Traditional 160 is the compact end of the Hekla Traditional range. It seats two or three and heats the classic way, with an electric heater and a bed of stones. It is one of the smaller indoor sauna models Hekla makes, so a spare room or a garage corner is usually enough.
In the box: water bucket, ladle, hygrometer & thermometer, sauna timer.
What you get inside.
- Toughened glass door
- 8 mm toughened glass on a soft-close hinge. Frames the view and holds the heat in.
- Aspen-lined interior
- Knot-free Nordic aspen cladding stays cool to the touch and fills the cabin with a soft resinous scent.
- Concealed LED lighting
- A warm, dimmable strip tucked beneath the backrest washes the timber with light and no glare.
- Tiered benches
- Two bench heights. Sit low and gentle, or climb to the top bench for full, enveloping heat.

What regular sessions do.
A traditional sauna heats the room to 158 to 194°F. Ten to twenty minutes, a cool-down, and repeat. Here is what regular sessions do, in Hekla's words.
Better sleep
A regular sauna ritual calms the nervous system for deeper, more restful sleep.
Eased muscles
Heat loosens tight muscles and eases the body, supporting recovery after training or a long day.
Heart health
Heat asks the body to work, gently. The heart beats faster, blood vessels open and circulation deepens, a response close to light exercise.
