Lush green forest, 70F and sunny in summer, and all the granite in the planet that you can climb to your heart’s content: this is Squamish.
Just an hour north of Vancouver lies the Outdoor Recreation Capital of Canada; Squamish sits at the north end of Howe Sound on the Sea to Sky Highway, where ocean, river and alpine forest meet.
Half an hour away from the Las Vegas strip lies a desert paradise, strewn with fascinatingly beautiful and strange rock formations.
There are pockets of zen to be found all over Vegas – from the tranquil rooms of the Canyon Ranch Spa to Red Rock Canyon’s Black Corridor, where climbers crag to seek refuge from the scorching desert sun.
The rocks are reddish and time erodes them into the pinkish sand that covers the trails.
But perhaps the best kept secret of Vegas is Mount Charleston, a sanctuary located just 35 miles northwest of Sin City.
Welcome to Charleston!
China’s climbing mecca is nestled within lush, emerald-green paddy fields and dotted with majestic karst towers soaring into endless sky: this is Yangshuo. It is one of the most beautiful places you will ever visit on Earth, and famed in classical Chinese paintings for its incredible karst scenery.
