Radium Hot Springs: Family Escapes and Winter Adventures
Sure, I like adventures. But I also like a warm shower and hot coffee. I like a good night’s sleep that includes pillows and blankets. Travelling with kids is an adventure in itself, and I want to love my vacation, too. On a chilly weekend in a Rocky Mountain winter, we decided to take our big kids to Radium Hot Springs for winter adventures and indulgent accommodations at the Bighorn Meadows Resort.
RELAXING WEEKEND GETAWAY
I love spending weekends in the mountains, it’s like a mini-vacation and a nice escape from the busy-ness of the city.Typically, Marc and I find ourselves going to Canmore or Banff because it’s so close to home. This time we wanted a change of scenery and to stay a little longer so we opted for a relaxing weekend getaway in Radium Hot Springs.
THE SECRET TO A TOURIST-FREE TRAVEL
Travel enough and you’ll find that November is a GREAT time to travel! This “shoulder season” month is generally quiet across Canada as we see a transition from summer sports to winter ones, and most people take a break leading up to the Christmas holiday season.
A WILD TIME AT THE ANNUAL HEADBANGER FESTIVAL IN RADIUM HOT SPRINGS
Typically, when I need to do some headbanging, I scroll through my playlist and settle on some Sabbath. Maybe some Slayer. And I’ve always liked the Scorpions. Ok, to be completely honest, I listen to, on average, about 4.7 heavy metal songs per decade. I actually prefer to watch headbanging. Especially in Radium Hot Springs during the annual fall Headbanger Festival

THREE DAYS IN RADIUM
A few weeks ago Tracey and I took off for a little fall getaway to Radium BC and today I thought I’d share a few of the highlights from our stay.
