While anchored by Radium Hot Springs at its north and Fairmont Hot Springs at its south, it is water that really defines this Valley; from the headwaters of the Columbia River to the south to Lake Windermere in the centre and the majestic Columbia River delta flowing north. To say that the line-up of courses here is strong is an understatement. Many make perennial appearances on Canada's Top- 100 list. Still perhaps the greatest strength here is that the region is chock-full of peaceful, tucked-away mountain courses of world-class quality that could best be described as 'hidden gems.' Places you could run and hide, clubs in tow, for a long, long time. columbiavalleygolftrail.com / 877-966-2266 The Springs Course - Radium Resort 800-667-6444 / 250-347-6200 radiumresort.com The Resort Course - Radium Resort 800-667-6444 / 250-347-6266 radiumresort.com Eagle Ranch Resort 877-877-3889 / 250-342-0562 eagleranchresort.com Windermere Valley 250-342-3004 windermerevalleygolfcourse.com Fairmont Riverside 800-663-4979 / 250-345-6346 fairmonthotsprings.com Fairmont Mountainside 800-663-4979 / 250-345-6514 fairmonthotsprings.com Copper Point Golf Club & The Ridge at Copper Point 877-418-4653 / 250-341-3392 copperpointgolf.com Columbia Valley Golf Trail Courses HOT DEAL!
