Sunshine Village sits high on the Continental Divide in the heart of Banff National Park. It features three sprawling mountains with breathtaking sights, uninterrupted by any signs of civilisation. Just a quick 15 minute drive from the town of Banff, Sunshine Village is the perfect place to escape the crowds and enjoy nature. Visit the gift shop and cafe before getting on a 22-minute gondola ride that will take you up through the rocky mountains and into the village. Take the tour at your own pace and either take the Mount Standish Chairlift or hike up the mountain to the viewpoint. Ride the Mount Standish Chairlift over 2,400 m (7,875 ft), the highest sightseeing elevation in the Banff and Lake Louise area. Experience 360 degree views of the surrounding Rocky Mountains. You will feel like you are on top of the world. From there, catch even more breathtaking scenery from the Standish viewpoint platform or connect to the Sunshine Meadows hiking trails and visit the three high-alpine lakes; Larynx, Grizzly and Rock Isle. Then finish your day off with a cold drink and some delectable eats at Mad Trapper's Grill & BBQ (not included).
