This is where the Gondola drops you. The fourth floor is where you definitely want to be. Breathtaking views of the Sulphur Mountain. They have gas fireplace with sofas where people can sit, enjoy the view and also keep themselves warm because even on a sunny summer day, it can be a bit chilling up there at that height and that much wind. There's also a bar with some limited food menu. However, the third floor has a full service restaurant and a self serve restaurant. There's also a souvenir shop on the second floor (if I remember correctly). One may also not want to miss the mini theater where they show a film about the Banff. The show happens at regular intervals. While the Gondola allows only two hours on the top, if you're able to get the time extended, one can easily spend...

For my first time on a mountain, I was extremely impressed. The gondola ride was extremely smooth, and I felt fully safe the entire time. The trails were well-cleared, and the boardwalk was well-maintained. Quinn, a tour guide, was exceptional, and was very supportive of my interest in fire alarms. The lower terminal was pretty cool, and the upper one was nice. I just wish they didn't tear down the old one, as I found it much, much nicer. Overall a...

It's a great ride to get a glimpse of Banff Town and it's surrounding Rocky Mountains. And it's a different story and experience all season long. They have so much to offer from Sky Bistro if you just want to have a cup of tea or coffee and enjoy the 360 scenic view from the top. I love coming back here to hike up the easy sulphur mountain trail and delight myself for a free ride down. It never gets old how I feel...

Very nice place a bit tacky and touristy though if you are looking for nice views for a fraction of the price go to Norquay ski lifts.

The arrival terminal from which you can take the small hike up to the observation post. Wooden paths are layed out on which to walk. The main building in which you'll arrive has multiple facilities like multiple restaurants, a small museum, a souvenir shop and toilets on every level. PS: speaking of that, for a toilet with a breathtaking view, go visit the one for disabled people on level 3! (see pictures)
