Next, visit Surprise Corner, where you'll enjoy breathtaking views of the Rockies—perfect for capturing postcard-worthy winter scenery.
Finish your day with a ride on the Banff Gondola, reaching the top of Sulphur Mountain for a stunning 360° panoramic view of the Rockies. Admire snow-covered peaks and the town of Banff below before the tour ends around 5:15 PM near sunset.
