“Loved this trip! The gondola was great, very smooth and we were up at the top of Sulphur Mountain enjoying the stunning views. The suggested time of an hour and 20 minutes is plenty to walk along the trail at the top and enjoy a coffee purchased from the very busy coffee shop, and take in the views from the observation deck...” Helen, United Kingdom, June 2025 >> See More Reviews
