September – a fantastic time to play golf in the Canadian Rockies. This past weekend, temperatures reached 25 degrees C (a lovely near 80-degree F day). Fall leaves are seen here first, and offer breathtaking contrast to powdered mountain tops and surprisingly warm afternoons.

There’s great golf in Alberta from now until mid-October, and you shouldn’t miss it. Here are our latest news and special offers:
