For a spectacular view of Banff and the surrounding valley (on a clear day of course) take the Banff Gondola to the top of the Mountain. There you will also find a gift shop, café and restaurant – the food isn’t brilliant but what do you expect at the top of a mountain! To reach the summit of the mountain... more

Wow! So fantastic! The ride takes about 7 minutes to get to the top, around 700 meters higher. While going up, you can enjoy the magnificient views of the mountains, and the city of Banff, which is very close. On top, get yourself ready for some warmer clothings, since the temperature is quite cold! We went on June 6th, and... more

The Banff gondola took us up Sulphur Mountain and from there we got lovely views of Banff, and the surrounding mountains. It was still really warm up there even though it was a high altitude. We had a lovely meal in the panorama restaurant, and as it was a buffet could eat as much as we wanted. It was a... more

The Gondola is located just 5 minutes from Banff Township and costs C$24.95 per person to take the ride to the upper Gondola terminal. The views up there are exceptional, and weather permitting you can walk the boardwalk to the... more

This was the second time my husband and I had visited the gondola. The first time was in August 2003, it was so busy. This time however it was a different story. There were no lines, only us. Although the day was really overcast we had a great walk along the boardwalk to the weather station, there was no one... more

We spent the weeks leading up to our holiday looking at the webcam here: [--] When we were there, we ummed and ahhed about going up, thinking it was just a walkway - but im so glad we did! Its more than that - theres a huge long walkway to the summit of suphur mountain, and 360 degree views that... more

I thought I would be afraid on this ride to the top, but the gondola was totally enclosed and I felt very secure. The view going up was only surpassed by the view from the top. After you get to the top, only a few stairs will take you to the top of the observation tower. With the thin air,... more

Very high-tech looking gondola. It doesn't take that long in line. The view is just grand, make sure to bring your camera. We even saw some mountain goats! Though remember that the food on top will be more expensive. more
