MTL Blog has made a list of spas that are close enough to Montreal for you to take a day trip and forget all of your worries. Winter is on its way, so we're here to remind you of cool ways to stay warm! Which hot spring will you hit first? Visit MTLBlog for more headlines. There is always something to be discovered in and around our city. Living in a place with such an abundance of nature surrounding us, it comes as no surprise that within driving distance, we can find a ton of hot springs, pools, and spas. There is something extremely soothing about soaking away your sorrows while sitting in a hot spring. Not to mention, they are super beneficial when it comes to easing body aches — an added bonus. Throughout the upcoming chilly winter months, it would be nice to be able to take part in an outdoor activity that doesn’t involve wearing a lot of clothing. And going into hot springs only requires a bathing suit and the will to get out of your house and go on an adventure. This is a great way to warm up while also taking in the views of the beauty around you. If you are someone who loves to be pampered, or if you just love being immersed in warm water, then you are going to want to check out these epic hot springs. I can assure you that you won't regret it! Spa Scandinave View this post on Instagram Besoin de décrocher? L’abonnement 1-mois est maintenant disponible! 🌼🌼🌼 Need to drop-in?

Le Nordik Nature Spa View this post on Instagram What's the recipe for success during winter? Go play in the snow, then chill in a warm pool when it's snowing. We visited Nordik, the largest spa in North America and it was incredible. We wish we could just live there... like forever! There are three areas: whisper, silence and social so everyone can enjoy their own spa experience. There are amazing rituals which happen every single day. Think a magical towel dance with scented towels in an awesome sauna. There are cute yurts, resting areas, dry and steamy saunas, cold and hot pools, floating pools... Nordik has it all. For a romantic (and relaxing) experience for couples, this is the place to be. Now we are really embracing winter in Ottawa. ⠀ What's your favourite spa ritual?⠀ #youcouldtravel #myottawa #explorecanda #ad @ottawatourism @nordikspanature_chelsea --⠀ #nordik #nordikspa #pool #couple #creativetravelcouples #romance #couplegoals A post shared by Cory & G | You Could Travel (@youcouldtravel) on Feb 20, 2019 at 8:09am PST Where: 16 Chemin Nordik, Chelsea, QC Why you need to go: This breathtaking spa is an ideal spot to let go of your troubles and allow your mind, body, and soul to be rejuvenated.
