Description

The Upper Hot Springs in Banff offers a tranquil and therapeutic experience with its natural mineral-rich waters and picturesque mountain vistas. It provides a serene environment for relaxation and rejuvenation, akin to a spa-like setting.

It's a fantastic way to appreciate the grandeur of the Rockies and immerse yourself in the beauty of nature. While the gondola saves you the effort of hiking to the top of the mountain, if you want the workout you can hike to the top.

The spartan picnic amenities at the Upper Hot Springs are largely offset by the scenery, location, and hot springs nearby.
