Coveted for the diversity of its wildlife, the wilderness of Riding Mountain National Park in central Manitoba is also the setting for the peaceful Elkhorn Resort & Spa. The resort’s elegantly rustic accommodations range from cozy guestrooms to cedar chalets. Activities include mountain biking, horseback riding, and kayaking, in addition to such winter activities as cross-country skiing. Feeling less active? Head for the Solstice Spa for a soak in the Equinox mineral pool. Try the Celebration of Life treatment, which includes a Canadian Prairie Mud Wrap, Re-birth Face Regeneration facial, Relaxation Massage, Sunshine Manicure, Moon Dance Pedicure, and a spa cuisine meal. Sign up for one of the many programs offered by the resort in conjunction with Earth Rhythms, an outdoor adventure learning company specializing in women-only programs and active vacation experiences. Accompanied by a naturalist, you’ll go deep into the forest for an interpretive wildlife outing to view moose, timber wolves, and other native species – while learning about the local flora and fauna. The Elkhorn is a member of the Leading Spas of Canada. For more information call (204) 848 8739 or visit www.elkhornresort.mb.ca
