Come and find out why Golf Canada named Bear Mountain home to its only national development centre.

The rugged Mountain Course strikes the perfect balance between playability and a truly challenging year-round golf experience for all skill levels. The Mountain Course is a masterpiece, offering demanding terrain and spectacular natural beauty. A par 70 playing at 6,900 yards, the course takes full advantage of its setting atop an 1,100’ mountain, exhibiting dramatic elevation changes and awe-inspiring views. Co-designed by Jack Nicklaus and his son Steve, the Mountain Course played host to the PGA Tour Champions 2016 and 2017 Pacific Links Bear Mountain Championship.

The Valley Course meanders through forest, borders lakes and traverses creeks throughout its 18 holes, offering spectacular views of Vancouver Island’s beautiful landscape. In contrast to the Mountain Course, the par 71 Valley Course measures 6807 yards from the Golden Bear tees, 400 yards shorter than its sibling. Factor in elevated tee boxes, more generous fairway widths, fewer bunkers and larger greens and the Valley course will likely be considered a ‘friendlier’ experience.
