Finding a gay sauna in Bogotá is easy to do, because several houses are located in the north of the city in or near Chapinero, the gay district. From the bars and clubs of the scene you can usually reach them with a short drive. Steam bath, dry sauna and relaxation areas, often spread over several floors, are common, some houses also have a small pool, a bar or show program. The opening hours differ, and weekends are usually the busiest.
The audience is made up of locals and travellers, and more international guests join them during Pride week at the end of June. While some saunas clearly focus on cruising, others are more about wellness and relaxation, and individual houses are considered particularly bear-friendly. Before visiting, look at the current times and possible theme or action days, as some addresses have fixed evenings with a special program. Towels and lockers are usually available on site. Because of the altitude of around 2,640 meters, you should take it easy in the steam bath and sauna, especially in the first few days, and drink enough. For the way there and back, a taxi or driving service is a good idea in the evening, as the distances in Bogotá can be long. You can find the right sauna for your evening with the following addresses.
