Wedged into the Purcell Mountains and with a sweeping view over the pristine waters of Kootenay Lake 60 metres below, Mountain Trek’s setting has long left guests breathless. Little wonder – the daily routine includes a four-hour hike, as well as yoga, cardio exercises and strength-training programmes. Here, the emphasis is on weight loss and significant improvements in fitness. A staff-to-guest ratio of 2:1 means would-be slackers have no escape – and a 900 or 1,200 calorie-controlled diet ensures results even after a short stay. It’s tough but guests return year after year for a Mountain Trek top-up.
