Why not spend a relaxing holiday in one of the luxury hotels in the spectacular mountain scenery of the Canadian Rocky Mountains? This is what a stressed visitor may ask herself, when she sees the well equipped spas of the many luxury resorts in the mountain regions of western Alberta. These breathtaking mountains not only invite to hiking, mountain biking or rock climbing but also to a soothing and relaxing holiday where a city dweller can recharge her soul and body from the daily mill. And there is a variety of very unusual programmes out there.
Relax and Unwind in an Alberta Spa: the Best Way to Get Away from It All in the Canadian Rockies
Six programmes that offer a very special way to relax in the Canadian Rockies:
- Relaxation on Rocky Mountains Summits
Martha's Heli-Hikes promise pure and soothing relaxation in not easily to be reached regions in the summit areas of the Canadian Rockies. After a helicopter takes the participants to one of the summit meadows of the Rocky Mountains they unwind with yoga, meditation and stretching and leave the daily treadmill behind surrounded by the wonderful mountain regions of the Alberta Rockies.
