Dude Ranches: Wellness Destinations Perfect for Everyone!

While the term dude ranch usually brings to mind images of cowboys and cattle drives, dude ranches are actually all this and much more – especially when it comes to wellness experiences. In keeping with the belief that wellness starts from within, many DRA-accredited ranches offer a variety of rejuvenating activities and services in a lush oasis environment to give you “whole body” relief from the stress of modern life. Imagine enjoying a spa escape or time in the great outdoors with a small group, giving you the opportunity to decompress and to actually contemplate all the things that you just do not have time to on a day-to-day basis. How freeing will it be to breathe the fresh mountain air, hike to the top of a bluff to view an evening sunset, actually have time to read a book, or just sit and listen to Mother Nature? As the original all-inclusive vacation, dude ranches offer value and numerous advantages over other all-inclusive vacation options including no planning once you arrive, flexibility to customize your itinerary, and minimal additional costs once you arrive at your destination.
