Directions
The Canadian Rockies Golf courses are all conveniently located in the spectacular Rocky Mountains from Kananaskis Country to Jasper in Alberta, Canada. Located in Banff National Park, Jasper National Park, Kananaskis Country and the mountain community of Canmore, each of the golf courses are easily accessible from one to another and from nearby cities.
The closest international airports servicing the area are Calgary International Airport in Calgary and Edmonton International Airport in Edmonton, both in Alberta, Canada.
Highway 1 (the Trans-Canada Highway) is the main artery to the Rocky Mountains from Calgary, with Highway 40 veering off toward Kananaskis Country shortly before Canmore, and the famous Icefields Parkway (Highway 93) leading toward Jasper off the Trans-Canada just north of Lake Louise.
From Edmonton, take Highway 16 west, straight to Jasper National Park. From there, head south to reach other Canadian Rockies golf locations.
Highways 1 and 16 are also convenient major routes across the mountains from neighbouring province, British Columbia. A spectacular scenic drive awaits travellers along these roads.
A number of rental car companies are located in Calgary and Edmonton, and motorcoach lines frequently service the area.
