Elkhorn Resorts NEW Nordic Spa Set to Open

Klar So means Clear Lake in Danish and reflects both the area we are located in and the Nordic tradition the Spa is based upon. Elkhorn Resort has a new, expanded spa to pamper and delight guests. The Klar So Nordic Spa combines the existing treatment rooms and mineral pool with a world class Nordic Spa experience. With the addition of four new buildings and over 1700 M2 of outdoor space, Elkhorn Resort has rebranded the existing Solstice Spa under a new name: Klar So Nordic Spa. The expanded facility boasts a series of hot, cold and temperate pools along with steam saunas, dry saunas, and numerous outdoor relaxation areas for guests to experience the Thermal Cycle.  This is the ancient Nordic practice of heat therapy that involves switching between hot and cold temperatures combined with a rest period.  Also known as Thermotherapy, this Nordic Tradition has numerous health benefits for mind, body and soul and will leave you feeling relaxed and revitalized.  During your day, make sure to take a break and enjoy culinary bliss at the Klar So Bistro.  Enjoy lunch, dinner or simply come in to sample one of the handcrafted cocktails or signature coffee drinks. “We are excited to be opening Klar So in time for the Christmas season so guests coming to the area can experience and appreciate winter in this new, amazing setting.  The Nordic Spa will be open 365 days a year and will offer ultimate relaxation in every season combined with the raw nature of Riding Mountain National Park” states Chris Phillips, Elkhorn Resort General Manager. The development of Klar So Nordic Spa represents an investment of over $10,000,000 that will boost the local economy by creating jobs and driving increased tourism to the Riding Mountain National Park area. “This is a terrific addition to the attractions in Clear Lake” said Colin Ferguson, President and CEO of Travel Manitoba.  “People love Clear Lake in the summer, and now they’ll have another great reason to visit in the winter also.” Your day of ultimate relaxation in nature can be booked online at https://www.elkhornresort.mb.ca/klar-so-nordic-spa  or by phone 204 848-8739.
