​Join us for our next Munich Tech Sauna Meetup on Wednesday, September 11th, for an evening of relaxing sauna sessions, refreshing lake dips, and great conversations!

​Our planned destination is the fantastic Seebad Starnberg, a beloved public sauna with direct access to the beautiful Lake Starnberg. We've had many memorable meetups here in the past and always enjoy the wonderful atmosphere.

​Important Note: Seebad Starnberg has recently been undergoing some construction work. While we're hopeful it will be fully operational for our meetup, please stay tuned for updates! There's a possibility we may need to switch to an alternative sauna location. We'll keep you informed.

​Getting There (Seebad Starnberg): Reaching Seebad Starnberg is straightforward. Simply take the S6 train to Starnberg station. From there, it's a scenic 15-minute walk along the stunning coastline of Lake Starnberg to the venue.

​Stay Connected: For the latest information, any potential location changes, and to connect with the community, be sure to:

​Tips for sauna newbies

​Sauna bathing should be a comfortable experience, so always listen to your body and don't feel pressured to stay as long as others.

​Plan enough time for your sauna visit, around two hours for a full session, to allow for relaxation rather than rushing. Avoid going in hungry or with a full stomach.

​Before entering the sauna, shower and dry yourself completely, as dry skin sweats more easily. A warm foot bath beforehand can also promote sweating.

​Inside the sauna, place your towel beneath your ENTIRE body. Aim for a short but intense sweat, typically 8 to 15 minutes on the middle or upper bench, guided by how you feel. Sit up for the last two minutes to adjust your circulation.

​After the sauna, cool down gradually. Start by getting fresh air to supply your body with oxygen before using cold water from a shower or hose. If using a plunge pool, rinse off sweat beforehand.

​Following the cold plunge or shower, a warm foot bath can help your body re-balance its temperature and create a feeling of warmth. Additional cold applications can further train your blood vessels and boost your immune system.

​Finally, take a rest break to allow your body to recover fully.
