Highlands Links As one of the World’s Top 100 Courses (#86, Golf Magazine, 2009) and Canada’s #1 Public Course (Atlantic) SCOREgolf Magazine 2009 for the third consecutive year, Highlands Links represents the essence and purity of golf as it was meant to be played. Here, between the majesty of the Cape Breton Highlands and the roar of the Atlantic Ocean, Stanley Thompson’s masterpiece has grown into a national treasure. Located in the heart of one of North America’s most beautiful national parks (Cape Breton Highlands ranked #2 National Park in North America-National Geographic Traveler Magazine, 2005), this 18-hole journey showcases breathtaking mountain views and ocean vistas. The brilliance of Thompson’s design is apparent to all with his famous bunkering and magnificent routing, winding its way seamlessly through rocky headlands and wooded glens. Whether it’s the feel of the ocean breeze at your back as you tee off from “Ben Franey” (#1) or the exhilaration of watching eagles soar above as you challenge “Killiecrankie” (#7), Highlands Links welcomes each golfer with its inspiring natural beauty. “Few courses anywhere are more pleasing to the eye”, (Golf Odyssey, Sept. 2005). While this “Canadian Classic” (Globe Golf, May, 2005) has been included among golf’s elite courses for several years, the Parks Canada operated course is equally proud of the fact that Highlands Links enjoys the distinction of being designated the first course in Atlantic Canada as a “Certified Audubon Co-operative Sanctuary.” As Thompson himself once stated, “Nature must always be the architect’s model.” Together, the brilliance of Thompson’s design combined with a spectacular natural setting has resulted in one of the world’s most unforgettable courses (#38 Golf Digest Top 100 Courses Outside the United States), and a spectacular golfing experience between the mountains and the ocean. www.highlandslinksgolf.com Online tee time booking available. www.golfcapebreton.com Photos courtesy of Chris Gallow 38
