Designed by legendary golf architect Stanley Thompson, the Fairmont Jasper Park Lodge Golf Course is more than a game – it’s a signature Canadian Rockies golf experience. Set against a backdrop of towering peaks and alpine wilderness, this iconic course invites both seasoned golfers and newcomers to discover a truly unforgettable round.

To help you play with confidence, our expert golf professionals share insider tips tailored to golf in Jasper National Park’s iconic mountain terrain.

1. Before leaving each green, take a moment to look back toward the tee. It’s a perspective many miss, revealing both the artistry of Thompson’s design and a surprising absence of visible bunkers. It’s also one of the most scenic viewpoints on the course – well worth the pause.

2. While the surrounding peaks may tempt your gaze, maintaining proper posture is essential. Flat lies are rare, so keeping your body aligned and balanced will ensure more consistent shots across varied terrain.

3. On the greens, the landscape gives subtle clues. Putts tend to break away from Signal Mountain toward Pyramid Mountain – an invaluable insight when reading the line.

4. For putts inside six feet, confidence is key. Play them firmly—these shorter putts often hold their line more than expected, so don’t give away the hole.

5. Ready for a new challenge? Experience the course from our Heritage Tees, designed to reflect the original distances from 1925. It’s a unique way to connect with the course’s rich history while testing your game in a fresh way.

Stay & Play Packages

Sun-drenched fairways, cool mountain air, and unforgettable views—there’s no better way to welcome the season. Our curated Stay & Play package invites you to enjoy the course at your own pace, pairing luxury accommodations with one of Canada’s top golf experiences.

And keep an eye out – you may even encounter some of Jasper’s local residents.*
