“Canadian Rockies Golf trips create lifetime memories,” says Darren Robinson of Kananaskis Country Golf Course, home to 36 Robert Trent Jones Sr.-designed holes. “Guests playing alongside herds of elk, glacial green-blue lakes, and towering mountains are blown away by the scenery and adventure here.”
With partners in Banff, Canmore, Kananaskis Country and Jasper, golfers have multiple accommodations options, from classic hotel rooms to sprawling log cabins. Golf Canada’s West, the exclusive CRG packager, can customize each golf trip to include transportation, outdoor activities and personalized welcome services. Corporate groups can be easily accommodated.
Courses within the CRG family annually garner best-in-class awards from leading golf and travel publications, including Golf Digest, GOLF Magazine, Golfweek, SCORE Golf, Travel + Leisure, National Geographic Traveler, and others.
