BEST HIKING AND BIKING SPA
Red Mountain Spa and Resort Ivins, UT

Framed by fierce mountains and the towering canyons of southern Utah’s Zion National Park and Snow Canyon State Park, Red Mountain offers a cornucopia of activities for fitness enthusiasts, in addition to all the pampering and relaxation you’d expect from the full-service Sagestone Spa.

In and around the resort are trails for walking, hiking, biking, and climbing, as well as the Ledges Golf Club. In case you can’t stroll without Fido, the pet-friendly hotel charges $50 for a pet per stay.
