These bars, restaurants, and spas around the world offer delicious snacks, refreshing drinks, and plenty of history, making them the most must-see après destinations on the planet. Better yet, they’re all within close proximity to stunning views to keep the magic alive after leaving the trail.

The Cave Bar

The ancient city of Petra, carved into the sides of canyons and cliffs in Jordan, is one of the most incredible sites you can hike to.
