Hiking. Hiking is a wonderful wellness activity because it gets you moving in the great outdoors. Instead of trekking long miles on a treadmill, you can challenge your muscles and your mind as you move across varied terrains full of vibrant landscape views. There are hundreds of miles of trails you can traverse in and around Brian Head, paving the way to a full year of happy hiking.
Horseback Riding. Riding a horse isn't only an exciting way to explore an area - it's also extremely therapeutic. In fact, horseback riding has been shown to lower stress, improve focus and concentration, and boost your mental health. Canyon Trail Rides is a local outfit that offers guided horseback tours through Bryce Canyon and Zion National Park. Reservations will be accepted beginning on January 1, 2022.
Spa Session. Nothing soothes away stress like a rejuvenating spa session. The Red Leaf Spa and Noorish Spa are both great options in Brian Head, each offering a range of expert services like massage therapy, skin and body treatments, facials and more. They also offer steam and sauna rooms, a perfect treat for chasing away the winter chill.
Stargazing. Stress doesn't feel so big underneath a blanket of shimmering galaxies. Stargazing at Cedar Breaks National Monument is serene and spectacular, offering you a fresh new perspective on your place in the world. You can strike out solo to view the skies from any park overlook or join a park program for a guided glance at our celestial companions.
Fishing. Fathers have had it right all along - fishing is a fantastic activity for your health. It's physical yet peaceful, capable of connecting you with nature, improving your confidence, and charging your cardiovascular system with every cast. Panguitch Lake is a prime place for fishing year-round, from fun fly fishing in winter to amazing angling during the warmer months - and all right from your lakefront cabin. Simple Snow Play. You don't need to get fancy to enjoy a day of winter wellness. Playing in the snow is a great way to channel your inner child and make some magical new memories with your friends and family. You can build a snowman, have a friendly snowball fight, make snow angels, or try to capture soaring snowflakes - as long as you're having fun, you'll be well on your way to wellness. Stress-Free Travel. You can't improve your wellness if you're worried about travel plans! Family Time Vacation Rentals helps you on the way to wellness by taking the stress out of securing the area's best rental properties. From cozy mountain cabins to delightful homes downtown, our friendly staff can help you find the perfect property without fuss.
