Tight, technical and heavily wooded course favours accuracy and shot-shaping over maximum distance throws. Beautiful scenery and well marked tees and trails make for a very easy to navigate and beautiful hike through the forested foothills of Hinton. The course culminates in a panoramic view of the Rocky Mountains of Jasper National Park.

New Parking lot is left off of Robb road across from Hinton Bike Park.

1st tee off is northwest of the welcome Kiosk. Hole 10 tee off is northeast of kiosk. Butterfly design, so you can start at the front or back nine, and stop in at kiosk between the front 9 and back 9.

Wooden tee pads with grip tape

Very heavily wooded course with tight fairways

Elevation at play on most holes both up and downhill
