Lester Park Golf Course,
just north of downtown, is well known for its natural beauty and panoramic views of Lake Superior on 20 of its 27 holes. Opened in 1932, the classic layout is set alongside the Lester River and meanders through open expanses and densely wooded areas. At 3,182 and 3,189 yards, respectively, the par-36, “Front 9” and “Back 9” courses present golfers with generous fairways, exciting elevation changes and gently undulated greens. The “Lake 9” course was added in 1985 and offers a longer and more challenging layout at 3,417 yards.
Enger Park Golf Course,
just south of downtown set atop a high bluff, Enger Park treats golfers to enjoyable experiences and breathtaking views of Duluth Harbor. Built in 1927 near the historic Enger Park Tower, the 27-hole course features three, distinct parkland-, links- and traditional-style layouts. Ranging from 3,168 to 3,359 yards, the par-36, “Front 9,” “Middle 9” and “Back 9” presents golfers with distinct experiences as several holes run through densely wooded areas while others navigate around scenic ponds and strategic bunkers. Four sets of tees ensure fun but fair tests for all handicappers.
Both Enger Park and Lester Park offer full driving ranges, chipping and putting greens to improve your game. Professional instruction is also available at both locations.
