An 18-hole course, Lynx Ridge Golf Club in the city’s extreme northwest is challenging, varied and suitable for golfers from good to great. While the front nine (The Ridge) features valley-edge play, a wicked eighth-hole trout pond and plenty of ups and downs, The Meadows back nine is flatter with a big finish. The pleasant clubhouse lounge features a view that encompasses downtown Calgary and the Rockies to the west.
