St. Moritz

Whether you want to spend your winter days bobsledding, ski jumping, curling or cross-country skiing, you can find your favorite snow and ice activity at St. Moritz in Switzerland. The region features lots of luxury hotels, shopping and dining as well, if you can squeeze a bit of pampering into your schedule.

Colorado

Colorado has so much more to offer than simply skiing in Aspen. Dogsledding, ice climbing, snowmobiling and more are all great winter activities you can find in areas other than Aspen for more affordable travel prices.

 

Andorra

This tiny country offers plenty for the adventurous traveler. Drive a Land Rover down the slopes or speed down on an Airboard. You can explore the mountains in the Gicafer (a Swedish caterpillar vehicle) then spend your nights in an igloo hotel. For a memorable thrill, try snow canyoning.

Whistler

Whistler may be one of the most gorgeous ski destinations in the Pacific Northwest. Not terribly far from Vancouver, guests can enjoy heli-skiing, winter bungee jumping, sleigh rides, Olympic tours and more, in addition to the traditional winter activities such as skiing and snowboarding.

Where to Find the Best Stargazing Spots in Ireland

This year, the Northern Lights put on quite the display across Ireland, but don’t think these lights are the only thing you can see in Ireland. In fact, many spots across the country provide some of the best opportunities to stargaze thanks to low levels of light pollution. Ireland has three International Dark Sky Parks and even more spots which, although not accredited, are worth a visit for anyone wishing to see the sky in its unfiltered form.
