Banff Sunshine Village: Entry Ticket + Gondola & Chairlift Access

If you're looking to take your sightseeing to the next level, then the Banff Sunshine Sightseeing Gondola is it. It's the perfect family sightseeing activity!

Starting from an elevation of 1,659 m, you'll ride the gondola to the top Village terminal at 2,159 m. From here, you can enjoy views of the valley and wildlife.

From the Village, you can also ride the Standish Chairlift to 2,385 m (7,825 ft) and experience breathtaking 360º views. The Standish Express takes you to the highest viewpoint in Banff that can be reached by a lift and it rewards you with incredible views of Mt. Assiniboine. 

After riding chairlifts, take some time to hike Sunshine Meadows. From these maintained hiking trails, you can access three high alpine lakes and see an abundance of wildflowers, wildlife, and endless mountain views.

If you're in the mood for food, you'll be able to grab a bite at a number of restaurants up top, including: Trappers, Chimney Corner, Creekside and Java Lift.
