She doesn&#8217;t mind being on high places, (like mountains for skiing) as long as her feet are connected to the ground. Lift her off the ground though and she is NOT happy. She&#8217;s been this way since she was a baby. It&#8217;s one of the reasons I was hesitant when we considered the idea of riding the <a href=\"https:\/\/banffnorquay.com\/summer\/sightseeing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Sightseeing Chairlift<\/a> at Mt Norquay.<\/p>\n<p>We convinced her to try it. She saw the chair lift, the mountain, and the top and looked at me and said &#8220;NOPE.&#8221; We reconvened. I promised her I would hold her the whole way up. She suggested she could keep her eyes closed. We agreed to give it a try.<\/p>\n<p>She. LOVED. it!<\/p>\n<p>The Mt. Norquay Sightseeing Chairlift is a 10 minute summer ride that offers unprecedented and breathtaking views of the valley below, namely the Banff townsite. The ride up is about 10 minutes long with pleasant views of trees and wildflowers. At the top there&#8217;s an observation area with beautiful lookouts perfect for photo ops. (We did an awkward selfie before a Mt. Norquay team member zipped over and offered to take our picture.)<\/p>\n<p>The ride down is unlike anything I&#8217;ve ever experienced. I&#8217;ve gone down mountains on gondolas, but never on an open-air chairlift. I have to admit, I clutched my daughter a little tighter &#8211; but by now, she was a pro and was loving every minute of it!<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_184206\" style=\"width: 610px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-184206\" class=\"wp-image-184206 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/www.familyfuncanada.com\/edmonton\/files\/2019\/08\/N10-600x450.jpg\" alt=\"Sightseeing Chairlift at Mt Norquay\" width=\"600\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.familyfuncanada.com\/edmonton\/files\/2019\/08\/N10-600x450.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.familyfuncanada.com\/edmonton\/files\/2019\/08\/N10-800x600.jpg 800w, https:\/\/www.familyfuncanada.com\/edmonton\/files\/2019\/08\/N10-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.familyfuncanada.com\/edmonton\/files\/2019\/08\/N10.jpg 810w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-184206\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">A view of base camp.

The Sightseeing Chairlift runs June to October. Summer hours are 9am to 7pm. Kids 2-5 are free, children 6-15 are $25 and adults 16+ are $39. (or you can get a family four-pass for $115.) Norquay also offers &#8220;<a href=\"https:\/\/banffnorquay.com\/summer\/via-ferrata\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Via Ferrata<\/a>&#8220;, harnessed climbing experiences led by certified guides.
