If you are looking to golf at one of the best courses in Canada, you don’t have to venture far from Edmonton, thanks to a course in Sherwood Park.
Score Golf has released its 2023 Best Public Courses in Canada, and the Northern Bear Golf Course landed at #35 this year, down 11 spots from its ranking in 2021.
The course is touted as being “built on Jack Nicklaus’ legendary tradition of designing prestigious and spectacular courses; it offers the ultimate play for every golf enthusiast,” according to its website.
The Bear is full of tree-lined fairways, strategic bunker placements, five lakes, and USGA standard greens. There are also five sets of tees ranging from 5800 to 7400 yards, perfect for any golf level.
