Top Canadian Golf Courses: BC Edition
Whether it’s your first golf vacation to Canada or you’re a seasoned golf traveller, you want to get the most out of your trip. So why not start with some of the top golf courses in Canada?
Meandering through forest, along lakes, and traversing creeks, the Valley Course offers spectacular views and challenging play throughout its 18 holes.
The Bear Mountain Valley Golf Course opened in June 2009 and combined with its sibling Mountain Course, positions Bear Mountain Resort as the only 36 holes of Nicklaus Design golf in Canada, and one of the finest golf offerings in North America. The par 71 Valley Course measures 6807 yards from the Golden Bear tees – about 400 yards shorter than its sibling, the Mountain Course. Factor in elevated tee boxes, more generous fairway widths, fewer bunkers and larger greens and the Valley Course will likely be considered a ‘friendlier’ version of the original Mountain Course. Rolling through terrain at elevations of between 300 and 500 ft above sea level, there is still plenty of challenge, and many holes that could be considered the signature hole.
