Venue

Yellowknife Golf Club

Northwest Territories, Canada

Yellowknife Golf Club is an 18-hole course located in Yellowknife, featuring a par 72 layout with 6,389 yards. The course is characterized by its northern landscape, with several holes offering scenic vistas, particularly the signature par-3 11th hole which overlooks Long Lake. The terrain is notably hilly with elevation changes throughout the round, including steep climbs between certain holes. The course presents moderate to challenging difficulty, with strategically placed hazards including two bunkers, water hazards, and dense bush bordering fairways and greens. Key characteristics include narrow fairways requiring accurate tee shots, elevated greens, and slope variations that demand precision putting. Notable holes include the par-5 finishing hole with a double dogleg design, the demanding par-4 1st hole with a sharp dogleg, and the scenic par-3 11th with its elevated back tee overlooking Long Lake. The course layout includes some newer holes designed to enhance playability. Wind conditions significantly impact club selection, particularly on elevated holes. The course accommodates both members and non-members with varied booking windows.
