Golf Courses in Okotoks

Okotoks curls along the Sheep River in the first rise of the Alberta foothills, a town where the prairie buckles upward and the Rockies begin to fill the western skyline. Its golf courses thread through cottonwood-lined river valleys and rolling ranchland, with elevated tees that frame the mountains on clear days and greens shaped by the same glacial hills that left the famous Big Rock erratic nearby. The shoulder seasons here are generous, Chinook winds keep fairways playable deep into fall, and a round is often followed by a short drive back into Calgary or west toward Kananaskis. It is one of the prettiest places in Canada to play a weekday twilight.
