Spas and other health facilities in Sweden
Health and well-being in the widest sense have been a dominant trend in Sweden, especially over the past decade.
One result of this strong movement is that a multitude of new gyms, spas and other health facilities of every style imaginable have opened all around the country, and in particular in the south. The selection of day spas, gyms, classic spas and all manner of wellness facilities is impressive not only in and around the major cities, but also in many smaller towns and villages, and throughout the countryside.
Many leading hotels have built first-rate spas, offering favourable deals for weekend getaways. A large number of new establishments have also opened, offering spas and wellness, cozy accommodation and fine gastronomy, all included in holistic experiences that often also include nature, as many of these new facilities are housed in splendid natural settings. Most of them stay open through the off-season as well. Spring and autumn are ideal seasons for a weekend visit for those who wish to savour Sweden´s unique mix of calm, quiet, exquisite and meditative natural experiences, and pleasures for body, mind and soul, whether your desire is the the open landscape and long white beaches of Skåne, the barren, dramatic scenery of the islands of Gotland or Öland, or the deep, fairy-tale forests and lakelands of Västergötland, Dalsland, Småland or Östergötland

If you think adventure and learning are two things that always go hand in hand, get out your hiking boots and some sun screen because more than 45% of New Mexico is in public ownership, meaning there are endless recreational opportunities for you to enjoy. More than 300 public land sites feature natural wonders such as hot springs high in the North-Central mountains, the world’s largest deposit of gypsum sand, undeveloped caves and lava flows in the Southeast, dazzling rock formations in the Southwest, and ancient Native American ruins in the Northwest.
The Swiss Riviera enjoys a particularly mild and pleasant climate thanks to its privileged location on the shores of Lake Geneva and at the foot of the Alps.
