One of the great things about golfing is being out in the open air in beautiful natural surroundings. Combining your golf travel with the opportunity to enjoy a fantastic natural panorama is easy when you head to Canada.
Imagine challenging championship courses combined with vistas of snow-capped mountains. Imagine picture-worthy hazards such as wild elk grazing on the putting green. You’ll find all this and more in British Columbia and Alberta golfing!
Golfing at Whistler, Home of 2010 Winter Olympics
The Whistler Golf Club boasts a course designed by none other than Arnold Palmer, as well as three others. One is right on the grounds of the fabulous Fairmont Chateau, a luxury all-season resort nestled at the base of Blackcomb Mountain. In Whistler you can play on championship designed and award-winning courses while enjoying some of the most spectacular scenery.
There is something for everyone at Whistler, which is still basking in the afterglow of the 2010 Olympics. Off the course, you can hike, fish, canoe by day and enjoy fine dining by evening. Shop ‘til you drop and then indulge in a spa treatment and be ready to enjoy the rest of what this special resort has to offer. A golf vacations specialist can help you plan the trip that fits your budget.
Discover Alberta Golfing
For a breathtaking panorama, you can’t beat the Fairmont Banff Springs experience! Stanley Thompson, Canada’s premier golf course architect, designed the original 18 holes nearly a century ago, winding along the Bow River with a view of Sulphur Mountain and Mount Rundle. An additional 9 hopes were added 20 years ago by Cornish and Robinson for some of the most memorable golf you will ever enjoy.
The Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel, built in Scottish Baronial style, also knows how to create memorable family vacations, from Magic Castle holidays (with cookies-on-arrival and glow-in-the-dark bowling) to “Girls Just Wanna Golf” holidays. This legendary resort also caters to the romantics with a food and wine festival and more. And of course you’ll want to save some time to enjoy the Canadian Rockies and at the thermal spas in the surrounding Banff National Park.
