Just Trees & Chains: Disc Golf Along the North Saskatchewan at Riverbend Trading Post.
Tucked away on private land along the North Saskatchewan River, Riverbend Trading Post’s 18‑hole course is a designed, tree‑lined gauntlet of tunnel shots and open fairways where the clang of chains competes with the river’s soft hiss. The setting is rural and deliberately secluded; play here is by booking only, and the property pairs a carefully maintained layout with on‑site camping to turn a single round into a weekend escape.

Private, Secluded Riverfront Fairways
A private course set along the North Saskatchewan River, Riverbend removes the crowds and stages 18 holes among towering trees and rolling fairways—your background is the river and the forest, not a city park.
An 18‑Hole Layout Built for Risk and Reward
The course was professionally routed by Wil Grainger and the Lakeland Disc Golf Association and features Disc Golf Park Pro targets plus a mix of tunnel shots, snaking fairways and bold risk‑reward lines that test every shot in the bag.
Wildlife, Quiet Stands and Natural Spectators
Between drives you may glimpse moose, spotting eagles or hear migrating songbirds—wildlife is a real part of the experience here, adding quiet drama to your round.
