The disc golf at Mont SUTTON

 

Mont SUTTON is proud to offer a disc golf course that will appeal to beginners as well as to the more experienced, and this, while respecting its DNA which is to offer activities in the middle of nature with the smallest possible ecological footprint. Similar to golf, disc golf shares the same objective, which is to make a minimum number of throws at each hole. The only differences are that the golf ball is replaced by a disc and the holes are replaced by baskets. The particularity of the disc golf at Mont SUTTON is the wooded environment and the elevation of the course. Hiking enthusiasts, on top of exercising their legs and arms, will appreciate the scenery and the walk from basket to basket. Fun, fresh air and the views and ambiance of Mont SUTTON!

 

For an access fee, the course will be accessible 7 days a week from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. for everyone and from 4 p.m. exclusively for seasonal members until November 6th. It is possible to buy a pass for a game of 18 baskets on the new online store of Mont SUTTON. In addition, Mont SUTTON branded discs are available for rent: a mid-range disc and a putter. With a length of 1 246 meters, the course takes between 1h30 and 2h30 to complete, which gives the opportunity to combine more than one activity in the same visit. In addition, a practice basket is installed at the beginning of the course to practice your shots. In short, disc golf is a great activity that is inexpensive and accessible to the whole family.
