Canadian Rockies Golf Section

Rated # 1 in Canada by Score Golf magazine, Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge
Golf Course features a landmark fairway known for harmonizing with its
captivating surroundings. Located deep inside the Canadian Rockies,
Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge Golf Course has few rivals when it comes to the
astounding beauty that sums up this world-class Canadian Rockies vacation
destination.

Through the work of 50 teams of horses and 500 men who cleared the land of
boulders and other debris, Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge Golf Course was
officially opened on July 15, 1925 by Earl Haig, Commander in Chief of the
British Forces in WWI and a former Captain of the Royal and Ancient Golf
Club of St. Andrews. Designed by Stanley Thompson, master architect of
golf courses throughout Canada, the course boasts elevated tee boxes and
holes aligned to show off the spectacular mountain views. Carved into the
thick forest are wide fairways blending with the rugged surroundings that
define its Canadian Rockies setting.

In 1994, Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge Golf Course began restoration to bring
the course back to the original layout created by Thompson. Bunkers and
tee boxes were recreated according to their original 1924 design, and
this, along with other improvements made in 2001, have made the course one
of the most sought after in the Canadian Rockies.

The Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge Golf Course has received four and a half
stars from Golf Digest, the Gold Tee award from Meetings and Incentive
Magazine for 7 consecutive years, and the successful Meetings Magazine
Pinnacle Award for 6 consecutive years. With its charming cabins, fine
dining, excellent pro shop, driving range, and exquisite hiking trails,
Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge Golf Course is ideal for the vacation traveler
bent on having one of the most memorable golf experiences in the Canadian
Rockies.
