Est. 1925

The Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge Golf Club offers one of the most spectacular inland settings in which to play golf. On all sides you are surrounded by stunning mountain scenery. Mt Signal, Mt Pyramid, Mt Cleopatra, the Whistlers and the Tekkeras are among the majestic mountains and mountain ranges that encircle the course.

Stanley Thompson's wonderful design ensures each hole is played towards a different mountain vista, while at the same time your game is thoroughly but fairly tested. If you are joined by one of Jasper Park Lodge's assistant pros, you can enjoy a guided tour of the scenery. Along the way they'll point out Old Man Peak, a craggy summit that resembles an old Indian chief looking skywards from his reclining pose.

The partly-open, partly tree-lined layout offers good width fairways, elevated tee boxes and pleasantly undulating terrain. On several occasions the bunkering mimics the peaks and valleys of the stunning mountain backdrop. The closing stretch brings you alongside the ice-blue waters of Lac Beauvert, with the par-4 14th demanding a carry across a corner of the lake, and the pudding-bowl par-3 15th and par-4 16th also hugging the lake's shoreline.

You can thank a gang of 200 men and 50 pairs of horses for clearing the land and making this golf course possible. They, and Stanley Thompson, left behind a captivating layout that fits perfectly within its natural environment. Although the greens here can be a bit slow and overall conditioning is not always "Country Club perfect", nothing can detract from enjoying the rugged majesty of this national treasure. One of the world's great golfing experiences.
