Jasper Park Lodge Golf Club

This is Stanley Thompson at his best: a par-71, 6,663-yard layout opened in 1925 and thoughtfully restored in 1994 to match Thompson’s original blueprints. Expect elevated tees, bold bunkering, and crowned, demanding greens. The routing leans into the land’s natural contours, with short par 5s, stout par 3s, and a mix that rewards precise approaches.

The course frames long mountain vistas on almost every hole and brushes the shores of Lac Beauvert for splashy views and cool breezes. Fairways weave through rugged, glacially carved terrain—this place is as much about the setting as the score.

Golfers report occasional wildlife sightings on the course—think elk and deer, with rare bear cameos and birds of prey overhead. Enjoy it from a distance and never approach or feed animals.

Consistently touted as Canada’s top golf resort course for over two decades, this is a genuine trophy round—historic, dramatic, and thoughtfully maintained.

Recent seasons brought wildfire impacts that changed some sightlines, followed by significant turf work. The course announced a seasonal reopening on July 1, 2025, with resurfaced greens drawing praise.
