9. Aspen, Colorado

Aspen is known as much for its celebrity visitors as its ski-friendly terrain, welcoming A-listers and royalty since it was put on the map in 1947. Aspen Snowmass is comprised of four resorts including its most notable being Snowmass boasting 3,332 acres of terrain, 94 trails and 21 chairlifts — as well as advanced terrain. Beginner? Head over to Buttermilk, best for its wide-open, gently rolling trails perfect for those who are just learning and families. The X Games are also hosted here, with a 22-foot superpipe, so serious snowboarders take note.

Where to Spa: Remède Spa at the St. Regis Aspen

Champagne, luxury throws and customized treatments are all par for the course at the award-winning Remède Spa at the St. Regis Aspen. An oxygen lounge, steam caves, cold plunges, and a Confluence waterfall can be enjoyed before or after your treatment, with more than just massages to be had. Energy work, nutritional counselling, salon services, waxing and yoga are just a sliver of the additional services you can book. The latest addition to their menu is an innovative Farm-to-Massage Table treatment that takes the farm-to-table concept to the next level. This multi-dimensional five course experience lets you taste what you’ve smelled, sensed and seen after you’ve been scrubbed and massaged.
