Canada may not be home to the huge golf and leisure resorts that make the United States so popular, but it does boast some truly spectacular golf courses.
The spectacular natural landscapes and astonishing vistas that make Canada so special also set the stage for golf of the highest quality. It is not by chance that names such as Hamilton Country Club, St. George's, and Highland Links have forced their way into our list of the globe's top 100 courses.
With over 2,000 golf facilities available, it makes Canada the third largest golfing nation in the world. Courses like Cabot Cliffs that rank highly in the country, also feature in the top 100 golf courses in the world, making Canadian golf certainly not to be missed.
Plenty of new facilities are being planned to be built in Canada with 75% of these being built in Alberta, British Columbia and Ontario.
British Columbia is the most western of Canada's provinces and is well known for its natural beauty, and is defined for its Pacific coastline and mountain ranges, creating an amazing landscape for golf and hiking.
