Disc Golf
Have you given disc golf a try?
Disc Golf is played much like traditional golf, except a disc (frisbee) is thrown into a basket. The object is the same, to complete each hole by getting the disc into the basket in the fewest number of throws.
It’s a free fun activity which gets you outside for a bit of fresh air and gentle exercise. The holes aren't spaced too far apart so it's an activity that both kids and adults can enjoy.
Course locations:
There are two courses in Timaru at Caroline Bay, and one at West End Park. A new 18 hole course has recently opened in the Temuka Domain.
