If you’ve ever dreamed of experiencing a classic romantic winter activity, sleigh rides are the perfect way to bring that wish to life. Wrapped in warm blankets, you and your partner will snuggle up with a cozy blanket and hot chocolate as a horse-drawn sleigh (just like the carols!) takes you through picturesque snow-covered meadows and trails that put the beauty of Banff on full display while skilled guides share stories about the region’s history and wildlife.
Sleigh rides last approximately 40 minutes and operate daily during peak time to make sure everyone has a chance to enjoy!
Breathtaking Views from the Banff Gondola
No romantic getaway to Banff is complete without a ride on the Banff Gondola, offering you and your loved one an experience that takes romance to new heights—literally. The Banff Gondola whisks you up to the top of Sulphur Mountain, where you’ll be treated to panoramic views of the snow-draped Rocky Mountains and the valleys below. You’ll also find a state-of-the-art interpretive center and fine dining courtesy of the Sky Bistro.
