About this sauna
Horsebox Sauna Fife is a mobile wood-fired sauna based in North East Fife, converting a horsebox trailer into a compact sauna with a wooden interior and deck ramp. It travels to different locations across Fife throughout the year — riverside piers, hilltops, forest edges and private gardens.
The Newport-on-Tay sessions run from the Old Ferry Pier, with views across the River Tay to Dundee and sessions timed around the tides.
