The experience from start to finish was amazing, the views from the gondola ride going both up amd down were breathtaking! We didn't book in advance, we just arrived, paid and got straight onto the gondola, and also quickly purchased some supplies from the Starbucks to enjoy at the top. The views were outstanding, it was a perfectly clear day, we did the boardwalk to the old weather station place, and even saw a tiny Pika doing its thing! Living at sea level we did notice the difference in the air at the 2000mtrs but we plodded on! And once we finished the boardwalk we treated ourselves to a nice glass of wine from the cafe and sat outside to enjoy the wonderful views.

We went for the gondola ride, which takes about eight minutes one way. In itself that is interesting - but expensive. But pleasantly surprised that the experience is more inclusive. There is a small group of exhibits at the top about local geography, geology and culture. There is a snack shop and more formal restaurant (where you will want to make reservations, especially is you request a window table). The deck is expansive with impressive views in all directions. A wooden walkway, about 2/3 of a mile leads to the historic cosmic ray station, with interesting signs along the way. And the cosmic ray station is a unique scientific oddity. So what we thought was a gondola ride became, pleasantly, quite a bit more. Still expensive, but more justifiable. An additional plus: we reserved a time for the gondola ride but arrived early (the outstanding bus system stops here) and the staff easily accommodated us without a wait. BTW, it's windy and much cooler at the top.

Easy trail. Steep gradual switchback inclines. The iews at the top were unbelievable. Kid friendly trail. Right along the gondola. At the top, you get 360 view of mountains and the town. Nice eatery and shop up there as well. Lots and lots of seating along the stair ways.

Great place. Nice trail up. Took 1 hour and 30 mins for two 50 year olds and a 17 year old. Amazing views. Was not a difficult trail so family friendly.

Stunning views of the surrounding mountains and valleys. There are full services at the top (restaurant, toilets, etc.). You can hike up / down or take the gondola both ways or just one direction (decide in advance as if you book a round trip on the gondola and decide to hike down no refund). The gondola boarding is based on times and they regulate it. I just showed up and was able to get on in about 40 minutes. I decided to hike down and the trail is very well marked. Cooler at the top for sure so bring a layer or two.

After the pleasant gondola ride we managed the 370 steps that took us to the top observation point of Sulphur mountain. The views from the various platforms was breathtaking and has got our trip off to a very special start. People you meet along the way are friendly and often offer to take a photo to avoid the struggle of a selfie. Although late for our gondola to take us down they slotted us in with a smile. Fabulous experience do not be put off the boardwalk to the observation point just take it slowly and with breaks if required.
