Ortovox is launching its first-ever mountain bike collection, the Sequence series, which includes two distinct lines: Trail and Free, aimed at integrating alpine values into biking.

Easter Monday in Lefkimmi was alive with families spilling from cafes, a marching band dazzling in the sun, and priests chanting beneath their hats. Men let off shotguns, filling the air with excitement.

The early morning sun is bursting around the dark corners of High Dodd and Sleet Fell, sending a flush of light across the golden bracken and on to the hammered silver of the lake.

Albania is a hidden gem in Europe, known for its stunning natural beauty, rich history, and warm hospitality. From the pristine beaches of the Albanian Riviera to the rugged peaks of the Accursed Mountains, there's something for every traveler.

The body is a shifting landscape transformed by surfaces and sensations. Each look captures a different tactile world: the heat of blood, the cool weight of metal, the yielding drift of water. The result is a sculptural study of how the elements carve, shield, and release the self. The materials we embody become the emotions we carry, and the body becomes a materialised exhibition of our emotions, from the pulse of Blood to the discipline of Metal to the surrender of Water.

Studio Stipfold designs AltiHut Cottage as part of first sustainable high-altitude hospitality ecosystem, combining a compact layout, fiber- architecture, and panoramic glazing to minimize impact while maximizing experience. At 3,014 meters above sea level, AltiHut stands as more than a mountain . It is a statement of responsibility, vision, and care for the planet. The project challenges the idea of adventure tourism by uniting comfort, awareness, and respect for nature. Every element, delivered by helicopter and powered by the sun, reflects a belief that hospitality can exist in balance with the environment.

Although these attractions are beautiful, the crowds they drew during my trip put a damper on the experience. I preferred sights like the Lagazuoi Tunnels, Monte Civetta, and Cinque Torri, all of which were less touristy but still had equally showstopping views and hikes.

"At the top of that lift, I met my travel companion ( Travel + Leisure's own Nina Ruggiero), where we dined at Schafalm, a ski hut so charming, you'd think it was a movie set thanks to its crackling fireplace in the center, cedar walls, and lederhosen-wearing staff. "Are you guys going to the concert tonight?" three more strangers-turned-friends asked as BSB blared over the speakers, sitting down to join us for our cocoa break."

Tirol police said five off-piste skiers were caught up in a nearly 450-metre-wide avalanche on Friday afternoon in the St Anton am Arlberg area at an altitude of about 2,000 metres.

The ruthless, haughty Cersei Lannister was forced to walk naked down a majestic staircase in the finale of the fifth season of Game of Thrones. That scene, which was filmed in 2014, established Dubrovnik a city of just 41,500 inhabitants that is known as the gem of the Adriatic Sea into an eternal vacation destination. Today, traversing its Jesuit Stairs and surrounding streets in mid-August can be a desperate endeavor. Crowds fill every nook, and prices are exorbitant.

Despite being the oldest UK national park, the best walks in the Peak District 's moody moors and rocky tors have flown under the radar for the mostpart, but recently TikTok's adventurers have been spreading the word. Try to visit Winnat's Pass and the other social media stars on a weekday to avoid adding to the crowds, then spend your weekend exploring properly: if you're not in walking boots, you're doing it wrong.
