The great outdoors and wellness have always gone hand in hand and there are few places in the winter that beat ski resort communities. Giving into the elements and soaking in breathtaking mountaintop views to snowshoeing at dusk or dawn are just some of the ways to take in the wonders of this quiet season. Our selection this month reflects some of the “greats,” and while skiing is still the big draw, these resorts offer a plethora of other outdoor activities and experiences that non-skiers can indulge in. There is nothing better than coming in after a day on the hills to an oasis of restoration and rejuvenation that all these wellness resorts offer in unique ways. From Sun Valley, Idaho, to British Columbia, Canada and the French and Swiss Alps, these rustic, chalet-inspired resorts make the most of ensuring your wellness experience is both inside, and out! | |
