Golfing

It seems to be a fact of life that golf courses have a habit of evolving around established vacation destinations. The world-renowned Alaska Highway brings thousands of visitors to our region every year. As with all golf hot spots, success in the region’s numerous golf courses lies in our natural assets; rolling hills, meandering rivers and virgin forests. Dawson Creek and the surrounding area have some amazing opportunities for the golfing enthusiast.

For a shorter course (6316 yards from back tees), the Dawson Creek Golf and Country Club has many demanding tee shots and is a risk-for-reward golf course with at least three drivable par-4’s. Great golfers love it. Some say it has the toughest par-3 i the Peace Region. How many 240-yard par-3’s have you played? 2003 saw this local 18-hole golf course host the BC Golf Association Provincial Junior Championships. One hundred and sixty athletes from the province competed, trying to qualify for a spot on the BC and Canadian Junior
Golf teams.

One of your first golfing stops along the Alaska Highway is Farmington Fairways. This 12-hole course features an Island Green as their signature hole. The course is always well maintained and you are almost certainly assured of viewing wildlife. This is a very challenging course with tree-lined fairways, water hazards and wildlife obstacles! An excellent spot for a weekend of golfing; the on-site campground provides a tranquil setting amongst the rolling hills of the Peace Valley.
