Banff Gondola at Sulphur Mountain
Mountain Ave, Banff  T1L 1K2 • 403-762-2523
Company Website: www.banffgondola.com
Fairmont Hotels Description: One of the most popular attractions in Banff. The view from the summit of Sulphur Mountain is spectacular and getting there is easy thanks to the gondola. Visit www.banffgondola.com for current operating schedule and pricing information.
Description: In a mere 8 minutes, visitors are whisked to the summit of this 7500 ft mountain, where they have a panoramic view of the surrounding countryside. Several observation platforms provide vantage points for the area, and a boardwalk runs along the summit for those who want to explore a bit. A large observatory houses several restaurants, and a gift shop sells souvenirs and film. Enjoy the sights from the comfort of the building, or venture out into the fresh air. It's a good idea to bring a coat along to help ward off the chilly temperatures and breezes found at this elevation. You're also likely to encounter local wildlife; just don't approach or feed them.
Payment Methods: Visa,  Master Card,  Discover,  American Express
