The Ranch at Palazzo Fiuggi
Italy
The original branch of cult fitness retreat The Ranch is in Malibu, California — and it’s a celeb magnet, drawing the likes of Nicole Scherzinger and Selma Blair. The newer Italian outpost is at the secluded hilltop Palazzo Fiuggi, near Rome, but maintains the same breed of expert - and tech-led - wellbeing programming. Start the day with a four-hour hike, then build to afternoon strength and core training. Chilled yoga sessions, daily massage and guilt-free nap times are added perks.
Go for: an A- list-worthy fitness kickstart.
