About
Athabasca Golf & Country Club is an 18-hole golf course located in Athabasca, northern Alberta. Celebrating 60 years in 2023, this championship course offers a challenging yet fun experience for golfers of all levels. With yardages ranging from 5,400 yards to over 7,000 yards, players can enjoy multiple tee options and stunning views of the boreal forest in the Athabasca River valley.
Designed in 1963 as a nine-hole layout, the course was expanded to 18 holes in 1995 by Sid Puddicombe and underwent a recent $1. 8 million renovation to become the 4th most difficult course in Canada. The course superintendent, Hugh Greene, and his staff ensure that the greens are well-maintained and the fairways and rough are manicured to perfection. Wildlife sightings, such as foxes, moose, deer, and bears, add to the natural beauty of this Northern Alberta gem.
In addition to the challenging course, Athabasca Golf & Country Club features an upscale restaurant in the clubhouse called the Fox Den Restaurant. The menu offers a variety of options, including prime rib burgers, wings, and more, perfect for a post-round meal with family and friends. The club also hosts exciting leagues each week, catering to different groups like the Tuesday Morning Geezers and Thursday Evening Mens league.
