Winter Banff Sightseeing Gondolas

For an unforgettable winter view of the Rocky Mountains without the strenuous hike up to the top, gondolas are a great choice for families, groups and couples!

Feel the thrill of an open-air chairlift at Mt Norquay on the Banff Sightseeing Chairlift at 7,000 feet with breathtaking views over Banff and the Spray Valley. At the top, walk along the viewing deck or enjoy a snack or beverage at the famed Cliffhouse Bistro (open Friday to Sunday).

Soar to the top of Sulphur Mountain in Banff on the Banff Sightseeing Gondola, just five minutes from downtown Banff! This eight minute ride in a modern glass-enclosed cabin takes you all the way up to the summit with a  boardwalk, restaurants, rooftop observation deck, interpretive centre and more open year round.
