Falstaff Travel Europe Winter 2024

DEAR READERS!

It's that time of year again—the skies are gray,
temperatures have dropped, and people are back
to complaining about the cold. But as John Stein-
beck said, “What good is the warmth of summer,
without the cold of winter to give it sweetness?”
Not to mention the unique magic of wintertime.
So, we’ve decided to embrace the chills and head north to
Lapland to explore the wilderness by dog sled in search of
shooting stars and the northern lights. If that’s a bit too
frosty for you, you might want to explore the wintery streets
of New York City instead. They’re illuminated all the same—
less natural, but no less magical and spectacular.

And what would winter be without one of its greatest
joys: the myriad snow-based sports and activities? We’ve
rounded up Europe’s best winter destinations—from the
nostalgic charm of Megève to the ultra-luxurious St
Moritz—and reveal why Cortina d’Ampezzo more than
lives up to its moniker as the “Pearl of the Dolomites”.
If you can’t wait for the sweet warmth of summer, how-
ever, you’re not alone. While we certainly find ways to relish
the cold, our minds are already wandering off to warmer
climes. After all, balance is key, isn’t it? For our upcoming
travels, we’ve sought inspiration from Oscar-winner Cate
Blanchett, supermodel Kate Moss and top chef Anne-Sophie
Pic. In anticipation of 2025, we’ve also curated a sneak peek
of the top five trending destinations for the upcoming year—
places guaranteed to be on everyone’s lips and that promise
exciting, unexpected journeys ahead.
For those in need of relaxation, we’ve explored the five
most innovative spa trends for the year to come: from emo-
tional healing to biohacking, 2025 is set to be all about
well-being, better aging and inner peace.
For foodies, we’ve ventured to Hong Kong, Singapore,
and Lima in search of fresh flavors, unlocked the secret of
the Beefbar phenomenon, and discovered the best restau-
rants and hotels in Alpine regions.
‘Tis the season to make all your travel dreams come true.
We wish you a wonderful time with those you hold dear and
hope you’ll have an even more adventurous 2025!
