Banff - Sulphur Mountain
Some 4 km (21/2 mi.) from Banff Townsite, 1600 m (5250 ft) up on Sulphur Mountain, is the hottest of the five hot sulphur springs. In summer its water temperature is 42°C (107°F), in winter 29°C (84°F).
From the lower station of the Sulphur Mountain Gondola cable railway, opposite (in use all the year round, but at varying times) it is an eight minute trip to the upper station at 2270 m (7450 ft) above sea-level. On a clear day there a splendid panoramic view from the three terrace decks and the mountain-top restaurant. The mountain walk known as the Vista Trail leads to the nearby Samson Peak.
