Spa Nordic Station — A Sanctuary Carved into Nature
Tucked among the century-old trees of the Estrie forest, Spa Nordic Station welcomes you into a world apart — built of stone, wood… and silence.
Housed in a former rustic train station, Spa Nordic Station gracefully blends heritage and relaxation. The design remains understated, allowing nature to take center stage. Built around stone and timber structures, the site evokes the authenticity of the earliest Nordic spas, with architecture that follows the natural contours of the land and converses with the Castle River.
The thermal journey unfolds like a breath — a fluid immersion into the elements.
Enveloping Californian baths, Finnish saunas, Russian banya, steam crypt, invigorating waterfalls, and resting areas overlooking the river form a soothing pathway, carefully crafted to awaken the senses.
Each station becomes a ritual — a subtle dialogue between warmth and coolness, mist and light, rock and forest. An invitation to slow down, to truly feel the living world in a hushed and intimate atmosphere.
