Hiking Fitness Weight Loss Program & Health Spa Vacation Retreat, Not a Fat Farm or Boot Camp

Hike Your Way to Fitness & Weight Loss in BC this Summer

Discover the beauty and tranquility of British Columbia's raw mountain landscape on foot. Breathe pure alpine air and hear the exhilarating roar of a glacial fed river. Weave your way through ancient, emerald green forests and emerge to awe-inspiring mountain vistas. Savour a nutritious chef-prepared lunch as you bask in the warm sun, or rest in the shade of old-growth cedars. Complete your perfect day outdoors with a soak in a hot tub or an infrared sauna and massage. Mountain trekking is an invigorating and effective way to gain fitness and lose weight.

West of the Canadian Rockies - Our Hiking and Fitness Playground

At our Hiking, Fitness and Weight Loss Spa, you will be hiking in the mountains of beautiful British Columbia, Canada.

Pervasive, beautiful mountains are what you will find when you visit our main lodge in British Columbia. All else that defines the region is a gift of the mountains - expansive unpopulated lakes, slender lush valleys, and brilliantly colored alpine meadows. This area compels you to head outdoors. It gives you perspective and vastness. It provides you with an opportunity to renew, recharge, and rejuvenate.

And then there’s the hiking.

Each day brings a different trail with a different terrain to challenge you. Your overall fitness is enhanced by incorporating trekking poles used extensively in Europe for improvements in posture, knee protection, and increased energy expenditure (fat burned). Hiking melts away stress and gives time to contemplate. You feel stronger and more vital. And lighter. Just look at our weight loss numbers. Our first week average total weight loss is 9.0 lbs for men and 5.7 lbs for women. That amounts to 5.7 lbs and 4.2 lbs of fat burned for the men and women respectively!

The FitPath program was designed and is supported by a Registered Dietitian, Kinesiologist, Certified Yoga instructors and massage therapists, and professional Guides and Lifestyle Coach. We are so much more than a fat farm.

To book your spot on the FitPath, or confirm availability at any of our weight loss boot camp hiking spas call Barb and Kirk today.
