Why a Mountain Getaway is Good For Your Health

  • If you are looking for a healthy heart, scientific evidence shows that life at high altitudes can lead to just that. Forest Suites Resort sits at an altitude of 6,225ft! 
  • The fresh air in Lake Tahoe is said to help respiratory issues and the scent of pine is said to decrease depression, stress and hostility. 
  • Beautiful mountain scenery is great for the mind! The different sounds, smells and sights trigger the brain differently than a city does and help promote peace.

Skip JOURNEY TO WELLNESS WITH THE WHOLE FAMILY

Imagine how healing and transformative it would be to spend a few days – or weeks – playing in one of the clearest bodies of water in the world. Now add to that miles of trails for hiking, backpacking, and mountain biking, many of which are vibrant with blooming wildflowers and rushing waterfalls. South Lake Tahoe has plenty of heart healthy activities for the whole family to enjoy!

Don’t forget to bring Fido! Studies have shown people who travel with their dog benefit from increased fitness, lowered stress and overall happiness. We love seeing the bond between furry friends and family at Forest Suites Resort, so pack up the whole gang and come pay us a visit!

ROAM 

There are the obvious benefits to hiking, like getting outside and good exercise. However, the reasons to pursue hiking go far beyond the physical benefits (of which there are many) and extend to finding a healthier, happier life through the outdoors. Hiking can help your kids too, promoting better sleep and lowering risks of high blood pressure. What are you waiting for? Get outside and check out our favorite South Lake Tahoe trails!

REJUVENATE

Yoga, an ancient practice and meditation, has become increasingly popular in today's busy world. For many people, yoga provides a retreat from their chaotic and busy lives. This is true whether you're practicing downward facing dog in your living room, hotel room, or on the beach beautiful South Lake! From lowering blood pressure to increasing flexibility and pain tolerance, yoga is a great addition to your healthy lifestyle. Explore the mindful practices we love in Lake Tahoe.

RELAX 

The times we live in can make us want to escape and turn off the external stimulation. This is where a day at the spa can be a blessing! Spa treatments and massage therapies create both mental and physical health benefits. In fact, studies have shown that the frequency of spa visits directly correlates with better sleep and fewer sick days. Lucky for you, South Lake Tahoe has lots of these relaxing sanctuaries to choose from!
