Cars Departing Up Banff National Park Gondola

The Banff Gondola uses enclosed cabins to transport passengers up Sulphur Mountain. These cabins, also referred to as gondola cars, are modern, comfortable, and designed to provide panoramic views of the stunning landscapes of Banff National Park.

Each Gondola Car typically seats four people, with large windows offering breathtaking 360-degree views of the surrounding mountains, valleys, and forests. The ride is smooth and quiet, making it easy to enjoy the scenery and capture photographs. The gondola cabins travel along a steel cable suspended high above the ground, moving steadily as they ascend to the summit. The design of the cars ensures protection from the elements, so visitors can comfortably ride in various weather conditions.

Upon arrival at the summit, the gondola ride offers an opportunity to explore interpretive areas, scenic viewpoints, and dining options, enhancing the overall experience.
