Beech Hill Park DGC plays throughout Beech Hill Park. The park seems to be divided between a wooded area and a large, centralilzed, grassy area. The disc golf course utilizes both areas almost equally.

The park is absolutely easy to find. It's located on exit 500 on the Trans Canadian Hi-Way. The entrance to the park is just off the freeway exit.

The course starts just to the right of the small recreation building. The tee signs are green metal. They give you the hole #, distance and both a Rec and Advanced par. There are no tee pads yet. The baskets are Discatchers with the yellow bands.

The holes in the open expanse give you a few opportunities to loosen up your arm. But to me, the signature hole on the course was # 16. It's 300' into the woods with kind of a "S" curve. What I like about this hole is after your first shot or two, the basket is visible through a very thick grove of trees, tempting you to try to cut the corner and thread one through the trees. I like holes that make you think or that force you to make choices that you might not ordinarily have to make on the course. This is one of those rare holes. Kudos!

Beautiful panoramic view from # 11.

Probably, my least favorite type of disc golf holes are holes that play up walking paths or roads. This course starts off with three in a row and counts five more after those. The wooded area in this park is thin enough that wooded technical holes could have been carved out of the woods fairly easily.

No tee pads is always a problem and it would have to be a major problem in this wet climate. Plus, I wasn't always sure from where I was to tee off from?

As I walked up to the last hole, two kids from the summer camp being held in that tiny recreation building, we're having a great time spinning the # 18 basket around in circles. They thought it was some kind of spinning playground apparatus. That may not be the best location for that basket?

The Mosquitos were swaming on me before I reached the first basket. Bring your Backwoods Off!

Some kind of permanent tee pads would help this course a lot, but I think the biggest improvement would be to carve out a few holes in the woods, to replace the paths/road holes. Starting the course with three such holes had me quickly losing interest.

I'm thrilled to see a new course here, The area, actually the entire province, seems starved for courses. I love to see disc golf gaining in popularity up here in the Maritimes. You guys are sooooo tough! You play all winter! Myself, I can barely force myself to play in a light rain. I'm getting so soft in my old age.
