[Sauna9 Myoko Kogen Niigata] Wood-Fired Sauna Fully Unlocked from April 9th! Experience Myoko Kogen's "Zen Sauna" Blending with Nature on a Day Trip

Sauna9 Co., Ltd. (Representative: Kazuo Hisada, Headquarters: Nishi-ku, Osaka), which operates "sauna9," a Zen sauna retreat brand for mind and body wellness, will grand open a new container-type "wood-fired sauna" at its Myoko Kogen, Niigata location on Thursday, April 9, 2026.

Along with this, the sauna experience, previously limited to overnight guests, will be opened to the public as a "public sauna" available for day trips. To commemorate this grand opening, a special campaign will be held, offering an exceptionally low day-use fee of 1,000 yen on weekdays and 2,000 yen on weekends and holidays, conditioned on posting reviews on Google Maps and the sauna portal site "Sauna Ikitai." Please enjoy a "retreat experience" where you can escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life and simply face yourself, in the overwhelming nature of Myoko, its clear water sources, and a space imbued with the spirit of Zen.

■ Nature, Water Sources, and Zen. "Nature for Sauna" advocated by sauna9

"sauna9 myokokogen niigata," surrounded by the deep forests of Myoko, is not just a sauna facility. It is a "retreat place" produced by the architectural design company "9 (Nine)," where Japanese aesthetics and sauna culture merge.

• "Wood-fired Sauna" that sharpens the five senses
  Gaze at the forest changing with the seasons through a huge window, enveloped by the sound of crackling wood and flickering flames. The "soft heat" that cannot be obtained from electric stoves calms the mind and invites you to a deep state of "Zen."

• 1.5-meter deep cold plunge pool
  Deep enough to immerse your head, allowing you to experience the energy of the earth throughout your body.

• Outdoor bathing feeling the breath of the forest
  Experience a "totonoi" (state of deep relaxation) as if melting into the forest amidst the clear air and silence. It offers a moment of complete liberation from daily stress.
