Views from the Banff Sky Gondola

It had been my intention today to go to the Icefields ,skywalk and glaciers but on the 8hr journey from Kamloops to Banff on the Canadian highway, I saw signs for the ice fields, which were at least an hour away from Banff ...and so I cancelled the pre booked excursion.
Im not sorry I did so .Instead I decided to go in the sky gondola, which is effectively an alternative mountain view to the one I previously planned. There is a regular shuttle bus from the hotel next to mine. The company is called Roam and its bus No1.
Sky gondola area was heaving but the view was worth the hustle and bustle There were 4 levels ....I thought the 1st level.was a good view ,but once on the observation deck on the 4th floor it was even better ,if that's possible
There was an option to climb a board walk route to an even higher separate view point but I was quite happy with the views I saw.I had some lunch overlooking the mountains on the 4th level...really lovely
Am.really pleased to have been able to take a 4min video of the whole panorama. Unfortunately too long for this app ...but can share on wots app and put shorter one on here.
I returned to my accommodation after the experiences and relaxed in my room with a view of the mountains,as I have a 5am start in the morning.
It was a lovely sunny afternoon.Leia mais
