Southern Utah's Red Rock Golf Trail

Jun 22, 2017

By: Chad Taylor & Jake Wilhelmsen

10 courses within a 45-minute radius. Think of it as the world’s longest cart path.

St. George, Utah, is named for the patron saint of golfing, a stately fellow who hit the desert links back when your caddy was a burro that had to pack your clubs and three days’ ration of water.

This year, skip Scottsdale — too hot! — leave Las Vegas — too many distractions! — and pass on Palm Springs — too many old guys! — and make your way through 10 St. George golf courses (for half the price of those other places!).

Click here to pick your course(s), hotel, and even reserve tee times.

Here they are, roughly from west to east:

Falcon Ridge

Just across the Nevada border so you can try to win back the money you lose to the rest of your foursome.
