Coming out of Hibernation in Spring.
In spring, the world starts to wake up. Snow melts, grass grows, and flowers bloom. We invite you to emerge with nature this spring in Revelstoke. We like to align ourselves with natures season here in Revelstoke, so if you visit during spring, you’ll witness Revelstokians coming out of hibernation and embracing the longer, warmer days.
1. Get a Massage
Revelstoke is home to many incredibly skilled massage therapists. This may be due to how many active people and athletes live here. Whether you're looking for a deep tissue sports massage or a relaxation appointment, you'll be covered in Revelstoke. Just make sure to book in advance to ensure availability.
2. Take in the forest
Get your dose of Vitamin N (nature!) on the lower elevation trails in Mount Revelstoke National Park. The Inspiration Woods trail offers a perfect opportunity to explore Revelstoke’s temperate rainforest. Breathe in the forest air and a hug a tree - it's good for you!
3. Soak in the Springs
If you're up for a short day trip from Revelstoke, the surrounding hot springs and pools are an amazing way to relax. With a range of easy accessible pools, and more adventurous natural springs, you'll find your ultimate way to sooth your body.
4. Calm your mind
Revelstoke is home to many yoga studios. We may be known for adrenaline sports, but with hot yoga, mediation clinics, deep stretch, and sound baths, you'll unwind in no time.
5. Read by the Water
Sit in the sunshine on the banks of the Columbia River and enjoy a good book. If you're looking to really escape, head to Lake Revelstoke where there's no cell service and take a much needed break from the hustle and bustle of life.
6. Sweat it out
You can rent a private sauna in Revelstoke from Selkirk Saunas. They'll deliver it to you so you can sauna in the privacy of your rental or at a remote campsite. Contact Selkirk Saunas for more information.
7. Birdwatching
At the confluence of the Illecillewaet and Columbia Rivers, you'll be able to view over 250 species of birds enjoying the warmer weather. This calming activity is a great way to connect with nature. Don't forget your binoculars!
7. Connect with local food
The Revelstoke Farmer's Market begins outdoors in April and is brimming with fresh local produce. Fuel your body with organic greens and vegetables and meet many members of our community. Held every Saturday on Mackenzie Ave and First St, you'll enjoy perusing market vendors with a hot cup of local coffee in your hand.
8. Rejuvenation Station
Why not treat yourself to a beauty appointment while you're visiting. There are many hair salons, spa treatments, and nail techs available to give you a spring makeover.
