Welcome to Golfing in the Columbia Valley
There is something special about playing golf in the mountains. Dramatic elevation changes, spectacular scenery, wildlife, an away-from-it-all atmosphere, the list goes on. It all adds up to one of the most exciting brands of golf you can play. And nowhere else in Canada – perhaps the world! – is there a better mountain golf destination than the spectacular Kootenay Rockies and more specifically the Columbia Valley golf region.
With several championship courses to choose from, to say that the line-up here is strong is an understatement. Many of the courses in this mountain-covered region make perennial appearances on Canada’s Top-100 list. The accolades, the awards, are many.
From the classics of Radium Springs Golf Course and Riverside Golf Course to the epic challenges that await playing Greywolf Golf Course and Eagle Ranch Golf Resort.
Perhaps the greatest strength here is that the region is chock-full of peaceful, tucked-away mountain courses – of world-class quality! - that could best be described as “hidden gems.” Places you could run and hide, clubs in tow, for a long, long time.
Indeed, it’s a complete toss-up as to where, exactly, you’ll find your happy place. But, with all the adventure add-ons - the fishing, the quaint mountain towns, the fine resorts - make no mistake, your happy place is here, in the spectacular Kootenay Rockies!
