Immersive Boot camps that put both mind and body to the test

Don't expect to sleep late during the six-day retreat at the Coastal Trek Resort Health & Fitness Resort, a health spa on British Columbia's pristine Vancouver Island. From the time the wake-up call sounds at 6 a.m., guests are on the go, weight training, kayaking, and mountain biking. But it's the six hours of hiking daily that's the main attraction (the lodge is located within a 10-mile radius of primal wilderness). Since the retreats accommodate no more than 24 go-getters, there's plenty of staff on hand to work with guests of all fitness and skill levels, not to mention enough elebow room to relax over a well-earned, though strictly portioned, health dinner at the communal table.
