Parkland golf is the dominant style across Quebec, with 44 tree-lined, inland courses spread from the Montreal suburbs and the Montérégie to the river towns of Bas-Saint-Laurent and the rolling farmland of Chaudière-Appalaches. The geography shifts considerably as golfers move through the province: courses near Montreal, such as Malone Golf Club in Elgin — designed by Robert Trent Jones Sr. and stretching to 6,592 yards — sit on flatter, open terrain, while layouts deeper in the Laurentides and Outaouais valleys, like Algonquin Club de Golf in Messines, are shaped by more varied topography. Further south, Dorchester in Frampton, a Graham Cooke and Darrell Huxham design at par 71, offers a tighter, wooded test in the Québec & Chaudière-Appalaches corridor. For golfers seeking length, Golf Griffon des Sources in Mirabel measures 7,536 yards from the tips — among the longest parkland tracks in the province. Driving times matter when planning a Quebec golf trip: courses in the Montréal & Montérégie trail are within an hour of the city, while reaching Rimouski or Amqui in Bas-Saint-Laurent adds four to five hours of travel, rewarding those who make the journey with notably quieter fairways and lower green fees.
