Disc golf & footgolf @ Craggan Outdoors
'Best Outdoor Adventure Experience' winner in the Scottish Outdoor Leisure Awards 2019, & TripAdvisor 'Hall of Fame' member with a 94% rating: unique fun for all ages & group types : throw a disc (frisbee) from tee to basket, or kick a football from tee to hole : beautiful 9 hole course located beside the River Spey, with fantastic views to Cairngorms & Cromdales. Disc golf is played like traditional golf, but instead of a ball & clubs, using a disc (frisbee). The disc is thrown from a tee to the ‘hole’, a specially designed basket that catches the disc. Our disc golf course is set alongside the main golf course, & comprises nine holes, & can be played as a round of 9 or 18 holes (twice around the nine), or if you fancy even more, then play as many holes & times round with a day ticket. As with standard golf, we welcome all ages, all types of groups & all abilities, so if you fancy something a little different in the way of a couple of hours of easy access outdoor fun, then why not come & give it a try. It’s great value at £8 per 9 hole round for adults, & £6 for under-16s; & 18 holes is £10 & £8 respectively. Or get a day ticket for £15 (£10 under 16s) & play as much as you like. Free hire of one disc is included, with hire of additional discs being £2 each. Footgolf follows the same concept as golf, but with bigger balls, players kick the football from tee to football-sized hole in as few shots as possible. Our 9-hole course has a mix of par 3, 4 & 5 holes ranging from 84 yards to 185 yards in length, & making good use of the existing dips, curves & slopes of the golf course. Par for 9 holes over the 1,122 yards is 36, & the current course record for a full 18 hole round is five under par 67. Footgolf is a ‘pay & play’ activity, so no bookings required / taken – except for groups who are advised to pre-book, particularly if wanting ball hire – so just come along, pay your money (cash only), & off you go. Prices are £10 for 9 holes for adults, & £7 for under 16s, with ball hire if required being £2. Feel free to bring your own ball of course. An 18 hole ticket is £15 for adults & £10 for under 16s, or play as much as you like in any day with a day ticket at £18 & £12 respectively. Free ball hire is included with 18 hole & day tickets. Footgolf is suited to everybody & anybody that can kick a ball, & looking to enjoy some easy competitive outdoor fun. Recommended footwear is football trainers. Please note that football boots with studs or blades are not permitted. Why not come along & give a new sport a try? We reckon you’ll be hooked. Don’t forget to ask us about catering for your group aswell.
