When visiting Banff, Alberta, one of the must-see attractions is Sulphur Mountain.
Part of the experience is embarking on the Banff Gondola to the top of the mountain and taking in the awe-inspiring views of the Canadian Rockies.
What awaits you at the top is a state-of-the-art summit facility featuring restaurants, interactive interpretive exhibits, a multi-sensory theatre and a breathtaking 360-degree rooftop observation deck.
For the ultimate mountain top dining experience 2,900 ft above Banff, there is Sky Bistro offering unique flavours of Canada with regionally-sourced local meats, produce and ingredients.
The interior of Sky Bistro features a warm, cozy atmosphere from the rustic design (think vintage antler chandeliers). The majestic floor-to-ceiling windows offer majestic mountain views of Bow Valley.
