Geothermal hot springs are one of nature’s best spa treatments. But in Yukon, Canada, hot springs can do more than make you beautiful. They can offer you a once in a lifetime experience. What is it, you wonder? Strip off your Woolrich coat, don a Vix bikini, and bask beneath the Northern Lights.

However, at the The Takhini Hot Pools in Whitehorse, near the bitter cold tundra, you can enjoy the beauty benefits of hot springs and experience an extraordinary luxury.

This is one pampering spa treatment for those who have tried everything on the market, and are looking for nature’s bounty for that extra-special spa experience.

Leaving the Yukon tundra with flawless skin isn’t too bad either.
