A four-day spa and wellness road trip from Calgary into the Rockies, blending soothing thermal soaks, nature therapy and restorative mountain escapes.

Take a few days to slow down and reset. This wellness journey moves from Calgary's sauna circuits and riverside e-bike rides to a Foothills spa, then into the Rockies for thermal soaks at the Fairmont Banff Springs, forest bathing among the pines and an Indigenous medicine walk—all wrapped in some of Alberta's most breathtaking scenery.

A Local Favourite

Bike the East Village

Once a historic meeting point for Indigenous Peoples, Calgary’s East Village is an eclectic neighbourhood that lies between the Bow and Elbow Rivers. Begin your wellness journey by exploring the longest urban pathway network in North America with bikes rented from Bow Cycle E-Bikes.

Surrender to the saunas at Cedar & Steam

This boutique spa situated in South Calgary is just the spot to decompress. Begin by winding your way through a series of saunas from infrared to cedar to Himalayan salt, plus a steam room. Finish off with a bucket shower to release those feel good endorphins. Try to extend your stay with a massage.

Azuridge Estate Hotel

Check in at Azuridge Estate Hotel set in the rippling foothills south of Calgary. The focus here is on energy therapy, the healing power of crystals and elevated, nourishing cuisine. Crystal therapy can be incorporated into spa treatments to align your chakras at the on-site Flourish LIV Well Spa.
