Gallagher’s Canyon Golf Course Kelowna BC
Gallagher’s Canyon is indeed an 18-hole championship golf course with tricky fairways, well-protected greens, and breathtaking views. It is considered to be one of the greatest in the country. You’ll marvel at the scenery as you play through thick ponderosa pine trees and along the canyon’s very edge throughout the course.
Just minutes from downtown city of Kelowna and Lake Okanagan, the warm dry environment and dazzling sunny days that characterize this section of the province provide excellent conditions for exceptional golf. You are also invited to play our mid-length 9-hole Pinnacle Course. See
Gallagher’s Canyon, framed by wooded mountains and steep bluffs beneath pure blue northern sky, provides the typical Okanagan golf experience: rough but elegant. Miles of orchards and vineyards dot the hillsides that rise from adjacent Lake Okanagan. Gallagher’s unrivaled golf complex includes the championship Canyon Course as well as the distinctly beautiful nine-hole Pinnacle Course, which will test both masters and apprentices.
After golf, imagine your way to the well-appointed clubhouse, where our chef prepares a spectacular dinner experience at the Canyon Bar & Grill utilizing the famously fresh local fruits and vegetables of the Okanagan Valley. Alternatively, visit our unmatched Golf Academy at Gallagher’s Canyon, where expert Canadian PGA instructors provide their own menu of methods to enhance your game.
