Golf course in the Laurentians
The Val-Morin Golf Club course offers entertainment and many challenges for every type of golfer. With a par of 71 and a length of 6,243 yards, this 18-hole course features narrow fairways, many natural water hazards, and well-protected greens. Accuracy is key!
Graham Cooke, an internationally renowned Canadian architect, recently took part in redesigning the course. Although the club is located in a mountainous setting, the course is very walkable and will be appreciated by players who prefer to play on foot. However, the golf club also has a fleet of 60 roofed electric carts.
