Alberta is one of the most memorable golf holiday destinations in Canada. Home to some of the finest mountain golf courses, including the Stanley Thompson masterpiece at the Fairmont Banff Springs and its famous "Devil's Cauldron" par three. Alberta offers a wealth of golf holiday experiences, teeing off beneath the peaks of the Canadian Rockies, while combining it with spectacular scenery, glacial lakes, abundant wildlife and the mountain towns of Banff and Jasper.

You can fly direct into Calgary from the UK, primarily through London but other regional airports such as Edinburgh operate direct flights during certain seasons.
Getting Around Alberta
We highly recommend hiring a car to make the most of your Alberta golf holiday. The driving is easy and very scenic - the Icefields Parkway between Banff and Jasper is a real highlight - and having your own car gives you the freedom to explore the Rockies at your own pace. Click the link below and have a look at our favourite stops along the Icefields Parkway.
However, if you are not so keen on driving in Canada, speak to us and we can arrange private, pre-booked airport and golf transfers.

Alberta has a true mountain golfing climate, with the golf seasons being shorter in comparison to other popular golfing destinations. We would recommend travelling between June and September for the best golfing conditions, which fits neatly around the summer holidays and makes for easy leisure holiday alongside golf.
