The Upper Hot Springs sit at about 1,585 m on the flank of Sulphur Mountain, the highest-elevation hot spring in Canada. A single large outdoor pool is fed by sulphate-rich water that arrives at roughly 40°C, with the peaks of Banff National Park directly above the parapet.

訪ねる理由
It is the simplest way to sit in natural thermal water inside a Canadian national park, and in winter the steam and the snow-covered ridgelines do most of the work.

The springs were the reason Banff National Park was created in 1885, after railway workers found hot water on Sulphur Mountain. The present bathhouse dates from 1932 and was restored in the 1990s in its original Art Deco form.

About 10 minutes by road from Banff townsite up Mountain Avenue, or roughly 90 minutes by car from Calgary. A local bus serves the springs in season.
