点评:If you’re visiting Banff, the Banff Gondola up Sulphur Mountain is an absolute must-do — easily our favourite experience of the trip!
We arrived right when it opened and bought tickets on-site (you can also book in advance and bundle it with the buffet at Northern Lights Alpine Kitchen). There was barely any wait, and we lucked out with a gondola to ourselves — just the two of us in a 4-person cabin. The ride up was smooth, comfortable, and surprisingly not cold, with incredible views the entire way.
At the summit, the experience goes far beyond just the gondola ride. The main building spans four levels, plus an outdoor deck wrapping all the way around — and every level offers something different:
Level 1 has a gift shop and café.
Level 2 features a small theatre, local artists, an interpretive centre, craft activities, and even free device charging stations (such a nice touch).
Level 3 is home to Northern Lights Alpine Kitchen and Sky Bistro (closed during our visit).
Level 4 was a highlight — blankets you can borrow, a stunning 360° observation deck, fire pits where you can roast marshmallows, a transparent dome, and fun interactive elements like a floral photo station.
But the real standout? The boardwalk to the historic summit and radio tower. Don’t skip this! It only took us about 20–30 minutes round trip, and the views are absolutely breathtaking — some of the best we’ve ever seen.
Tickets were $163.80 for two adults, and honestly, it was worth every penny. Between the views, the facilities, and the overall experience, it exceeded our expectations. Staff were friendly, organized, and helpful throughout.
If you’re on the fence — just do it. This is one of those unforgettable Banff experiences you’ll be talking about long after your trip.

我们一开门就到了,现场买了票(您也可以提前预订,并把票和北极光高山餐厅的自助餐打包)。几乎不用排队,而且我们运气爆棚,坐上了缆车——一个四人座的车厢里只有我们两个人。上山的旅程平稳舒适,而且出乎意料地不冷,沿途的景色也美不胜收。
到达山顶后,体验远不止乘坐缆车那么简单。主楼共有四层,还有一个环绕四周的户外平台——每一层都各具特色:
一层设有礼品店和咖啡馆。
二层有一个小型剧院、当地艺术家作品展示区、游客中心、手工活动区,甚至还有免费的电子设备充电站(真是贴心)。
三层是北极光高山餐厅和天空小酒馆(我们去的时候关门了)。
四楼绝对是亮点——这里有可以借用的毯子、令人惊叹的360度全景观景台、可以烤棉花糖的篝火坑、透明穹顶,以及各种有趣的互动设施,比如花卉拍照站。
但真正令人惊艳的是什么呢?是通往历史悠久的山顶和无线电塔的木栈道。千万别错过!往返只需20-30分钟,沿途的景色绝对令人叹为观止——是我们见过的最美景色之一。
两位成人的门票是163.80美元,说实话,绝对物超所值。无论是景色、设施还是整体体验,都远远超出了我们的预期。工作人员全程热情友好、井然有序、乐于助人。
如果你还在犹豫——那就别犹豫了,赶紧行动吧!这绝对是你在班夫旅行中难忘的体验之一,你会在旅程结束后很久都津津乐道。
