Ellensburg Disc Golf Course Overview

This is a friendly park course with clear lines and a steady breeze at times. Fairways are mostly open, yet small trees and out-of-bounds near water add shape. Blue tees give a firmer test while Green tees keep it simple for families and new players.

UDisc notes good flow, arrows at baskets that point to the next tee, and brick or gravel tee pads. The round covers about 1.7 miles and takes around an hour and a quarter for most groups. Dogs are allowed. Carts work fine on the flat ground, though there is no on-course water so bring a bottle. In winter the park may close the front gate to motor traffic and you will walk in from the entrance.
