Special Edition: Glamping in Glacier with Under Canvas® and Glamping Hub

Get ready to experience the majesty of the outdoors like never before. Cozy up in a luxury tent, linger around the campfire and stargaze from your private deck. This is glamping in Glacier.

Glacier National Park isn’t just another protected wildlife site in northwest Montana. It’s one of Mother Nature’s most prized possessions, crammed end-to-end with snow-capped peaks, blue skies, moose, big-horn sheep, mountain goats, aspen trees and inspiration. As a slightly less challenging adventure compared to Bryce & Zion and Crater Lake, Glacier offers up terrain that caters to various rider abilities, with plenty of avid options as well as e-bike availability.

Join us for this special edition glamping trip with our friends at Under Canvas® and Glamping Hub. You’ll experience glamping at its finest in a luxury safari-style tent just outside the park. When you aren’t soaking up nature in style, you’ll spend your days exploring this magical landscape on and off road as we tackle some gravel riding, raft the rapids of the Flathead River and Ride Going-to-the-Sun Road across the Continental Divide and along the spine of the Rockies. You’ll quickly discover why it’s been named one of America’s most scenic roads.

We mean it when we say Under Canvas® has perfected the art of luxury camping, allowing you to be close to nature without sacrificing comfort. Rooms feature a king bed with linens you’ll wish you had at home, a wood stove to keep the tent warm at night and a private deck that allows you to enjoy the brilliance of the stars. Plus, we all know you’re wondering, each Deluxe tent includes a private ensuite bathroom complete with a shower, sink and flushing toilet. So as you settle in each evening, breathe in deep the fresh mountain air and let the rustle of the trees and the sounds of the surrounding forest sing you to sleep, just as it has for centuries of travelers.

Not only is Under Canvas® one of the best in glamping accommodations, but Glamping Hub can help you find even more around the globe. Glamping Hub specializes in delivering unforgettable experiences in nature through a curated collection of unique outdoor accommodations. With over 35,000 properties around the world and 23 categories of structures to choose from, glamping with Glamping Hub is more than just where you go, it’s also why you stay.

Bicycle tours and routes: How to get back on that bike

Last year, RewardExpert released its 2017 ranking of the Best Destinations to Explore by Bike, comparing 53 of the largest cities in the country and evaluating them on 13 key metrics across four categories: biking infrastructure, city profile, bike-share index, and biking safety. Top of the list – Minneapolis, with 170 bike share stations and 130 miles of bike lanes through Nice Ride Minnesota. Topping RewardExpert’s Up & Coming Cities list was Memphis, with plans to implement a bike-share program this year to use in the city’s already-expanded bike lanes.

Below you’ll find a dozen bicycling routes and tours around the U.S. that will you get in the saddle and traveling on two wheels. Of course, this is just a sampling of places to ride – pretty much wherever you go, there’s likely a chance to hop on a bike.

Asheville (North Carolina): Riding along the Blue Ridge Parkway, you’ll pedal the mountains of western North Carolina where you’ll find the highest peak east of the Mississippi River. On the Asheville to Brevard trip with Trek Travel, pass rivers and waterfalls as you ride the scenic roadways and enjoy the indulgences between Asheville, “Beer City USA,” and the mountain town of Brevard.

Glacier National Park (Montana): Named one of the best bicycling routes by several cycling publications, Going-to-the-Sun Road is not to be missed when riding in Glacier National Park. Trek Travel, which features Trek Bikes and electric assist bikes, offers a tour that highlights various areas of the park, and even includes rafting on the Flathead River. Just 25 glaciers remain in the park, and seeing them by bike gives you more time to reflect upon them.
