点评:We visited the Smoke Dūminukė Sauna as a group of four friends, including guests from Scotland, and it turned out to be one of the most memorable highlights of our trip. None of us had tried a traditional Lithuanian smoke sauna before, so we didn’t quite know what to expect — but the experience exceeded every possible expectation.
The session was guided by Ignas, a professional sauna master (pirtininkas), who delivered the entire ritual in excellent English, which was perfect for our English-speaking friends. He introduced us to the deep traditions of Lithuanian sauna culture — from ancient purification rituals to the symbolism of natural elements. It felt authentic, respectful, and truly unique.
The atmosphere of the sauna itself was magical: the warm wooden interior, the soft glow of the light, the smell of natural smoke and herbs. Outside, the beautiful forest surroundings added even more charm and tranquility. We felt immersed not only in heat, but in culture, nature, and storytelling.
Ignas guided us through different stages of the sauna ritual — relaxing heat waves, gentle whisking, aromatherapy, cooling moments outside — always making sure everyone felt comfortable and understood what was happening. Even as first-timers, we felt completely safe and cared for.
By the end, we were deeply relaxed, refreshed, and inspired. Our Scottish friends said it was one of the most special experiences they’ve ever had while traveling.
If you’re looking for something authentic, cultural, and genuinely unforgettable, this smoke sauna is an absolute must-try. Highly recommended for anyone curious to explore Lithuanian traditions in a warm, welcoming, and beautifully natural environment.
P.S. The sauna is located in Griškabūdis, a small Lithuanian town famous for its stunning octagonal wooden church, built in the 18th century. It’s an architectural gem and one of the most unique churches in the region — an absolute must-see while you’re there.

整个过程由专业的桑拿师傅伊格纳斯(Ignas,当地称为pirtininkas)指导,他用流利的英语讲解了整个流程,这对于我们这些说英语的朋友来说非常方便。他向我们介绍了立陶宛桑拿文化的深厚传统——从古老的净化仪式到自然元素的象征意义。整个过程真实、尊重,而且独一无二。
桑拿房本身的氛围就令人陶醉:温暖的木质内饰、柔和的灯光、天然烟熏和草药的香气。外面美丽的森林更增添了几分魅力和宁静。我们不仅沉浸在热气之中,更沉浸在文化、自然和故事之中。
伊格纳斯带领我们体验了桑拿仪式的各个环节——舒缓的热浪、轻柔的拂拭、芳香疗法、以及在室外享受片刻清凉——始终确保每个人都感到舒适,并了解整个过程。即使是初次体验,我们也感到无比安全和被关怀。
结束时,我们彻底放松,神清气爽,精神焕发。我们的苏格兰朋友说,这是他们旅行中最特别的体验之一。
如果您正在寻找地道、充满文化气息且真正令人难忘的体验,那么这家烟熏桑拿绝对不容错过。强烈推荐给所有渴望在温暖、热情、优美的自然环境中探索立陶宛传统文化的人们。
附注:这家桑拿房位于格里什卡布迪斯,这是立陶宛一座以其建于18世纪的精美八角形木教堂而闻名的小镇。这座教堂是建筑瑰宝,也是该地区最独特的教堂之一——绝对是您到访立陶宛时不可错过的景点。
