Default From Where Was This Photo Taken?

Anybody knows where would this photo be taken from?

The third picture down (the couple with the Banff Spring Hotel at the background).

Thanks a lot!

3rd pic is above the banff springs golf course i believe. I think it is a viewing platform above the course, but im not sure how you get out there.

Edit after reading other posts- yes, it is a viewing area where buffalo st meets tunnel mountain dr.

I think the third picture is up on the road that goes on tunnel mountain. I got that same picture this summer when on vacation in banff. There is a little parking are and a wooden lookout point.

Same place where this was taken.

Just off Tunnel Mtn drive, as others have stated.

As the page loaded with the promise of Bonner photography I was somewhat let down by the result.

I believe I have a large, mounted and framed photo from the same location. I was driving Tunnel Mountain Road with my son, who was about 10 at the time, and I see this hill beside the road. I stop intent on climbing the hill for a photo (which appears to be the exact vantage point as this one). My son cries all the way up but no way am I missing that spectacular vantage point. It looks just like this one posted.

I have a great shot in the winter from editing a wedding video. A very popular spot for pictures indeed.
