At 2281 m (7486 ft) the upper terminal of the Banff Gondola sightseeing lift also has the full-service Panorama Restaurant, self-serve Summit Café, 360° observation decks and the Sanson’s Peak boardwalk all offering incredible views. The vista includes Banff townsite, Cascade and Rundle Mountains, the Bow River, Lake Minnewanka, and The Fairmont Banff Springs hotel and golf course as well as a resident herd of bighorn sheep. Both restaurants offer tables by huge windows; the Panorama also has soft lounge seats.
