For most people, December in Northern Europe is a time for wrapping up warm and hibernating. The days are short and the weather's harsh - and trips to the seaside are just a distant memory. But while the freezing winter temperatures drive many indoors - there is a group of people who see the the big freeze as big fun! In Denmark 'winter swimming' pulls in a niche but loyal crowd... and short, sharp bursts between the cold sea and a roasting sauna are believed to do wonders for ones health.
