The gondola ride to Sulphur Mountain summit costs ~$68 CAD adults / $34 CAD youth (6-15); under 6 free — book online to guarantee a spot in peak summer. The summit has heated indoor interpretive galleries and wraparound boardwalks with jaw-dropping 360-degree Rockies views. Toddlers in carriers are fine; strollers are not practical on the summit boardwalk. Budget about 2 hours at the top and pack a warm layer regardless of season.
