Golden Gate Frisbee Disc Golf Course

One of better courses I’ve ever been to. Obviously a beautiful setting but also the entire course has proper signage and is kept up very nicely. Coming from Los Angeles, most courses are confusing, have no grass, etc. so this one is a treat. Will definitely play this course every time I’m in SF.
Do note that if it has rained the day before or night before, course may be super muddy so prepare for that (especially your shoes)

This is a great disc golf course (i only been playing for few months). Its nice and clean and is maintained regularly. I usually come with my 8 year old and everyone are really cool to us beginners ! some locals even gave some tips to my son which improved his drivers by alot ! i am talking 30 to 50 feet more now on his drives !
We usually play the back 9 but will eventually work our way to the back as well.

Cool park to play at. The course is challenging but fun. Also nice to get out of the city for a few hours and be surrounded by the trees.
We will definitely be back to play.

This is a gem in Golden Gate Park. My buddy and I played 18 holes today and we had a great time (even though are throws were not good at all)! We started at 1:30ish and finished 3:30. We got some exercise, had some good laughs, and enjoyed the beautiful day. We played with a cool guy named Evan. He was a much better player than we were so he gave us the layout of the course and the rules. It was great to have him with us.
I highly recommend this and I plan to play again here many times.

Great course for the first time going disc golfing in a long time. The course was up kept and was very playable

The best course in the Bay Area that I’ve played at. I’ve heard rumors about the one on Santa Cruz being fantastic, but there’s nothing short of fantastic about this one.
First off, you’re in golden gate park surrounded by beautiful wilderness.
Each and every tee box is clearly designated with well laid cement and brick.
There are also hole locations and distance to each hole labelled at the tee box.
Like every course, the first time you play you’ll need a little help from a regular to share just where the pin is for a visual from the box.
Most holes are littered with trees but nothing you can’t potentially throw around with the right toss. Certain holes require tee shots to go around trees which are clearly marked with signs hanging from that specific tree.
And there are definitely some holes that have the potential for an ace, but I’m not that player haha!
All in all, was a great experience and I look forward to playing this course often!

Outstanding disc golf course! The course is run by the local disc golf club and they have done a great job of keeping it fun, maintained, and original.
The first couple of holes have quite a bit of trees, which can make it challenging, but very fun. My favorite were the back 9. They were unique and had some really fun shots and basket placement. All of the holes are set up to allow the basket to be moved to 3 different spots, so it is definitely re-​playable.
I stopped by twice while I was in town. The first couple of holes were really crowded. Most of the guys we saw, in front and in back of us, were pretty cool. We had one group who seemed to think they were pretty «elite» and gave a friend a hard time because he said it was his first time playing «frolf». Apparently your’e not allowed to call it frolf around them. The funny part was they really weren’t that good and I was playing equal to them despite their «20+ years of experience» on me.
Also, for those looking for discs, I’m sorry to say that the Purple Skunk Skateshop didn’t have much of a variety of discs in. It seemed like they were phasing them out, but I might be wrong on that.
I can’t wait to come back and play through next time I’m in town!

I’ve only been to two disc golf courses (this one and the Aquatic Park in Berkeley), but the Golden Gate park rocks.
I’ve played here twice in the past two years. Both times were on Saturday mornings. There was usually a short wait for the hole in front of us, which was totally reasonable (and gave us the chance to finish the perhaps-​alcoholic beverages we brought with us). The park seemed newbie-​friendly.
There were lots of parties that were clearly playing for the first time, but they didn’t seem to hold up the flow.
The course itself is enjoyable. There’s a lot of variation in holes. You’ll be contending with eucalyptus trees a ton, but there’s a nice mix of super-​wooded vs open vs terrain holes.
Course maps are available online. The course itself was really well-​kept.
This is totally dog-​friendly. I brought two dogs off-​leash the second time around after seeing several parties do it the first time around.
In short: a great place to play, especially if you’re new to disc golf. Bring beer and dogs!

I, and probably anyone who knows me, would not consider myself to be good at (any) sports. Possibly because I was a swimmer and dancer growing up, or maybe I’m not competitive enough — unless we’re playing Gin Rummy or Deuces, then I’ll woop your butt! But that doesn’t stop me from trying many different sports /​outdoor activities. Also, what I lack in general athleticism, I more than make up for with my winning personality and good sense of humor (because you better believe I get ripped on quite a lot).
One breezy but sunny San Francisco afternoon I was invited to play Frisbee golf in GGP. I’ve never played and don’t really excel at throwing a regular Frisbee, but I figured it sounded fun enough, and my friends always fill their backpacks to the brim with brewskies, sooooo, win win.
We got out there after hitting up Sports Basement for our Frisbees. 18 holes rangning in difficulty level on a gorgeous course, you can’t really go wrong. We all had such a nice time wandering through the course. Some people take it pretty seriously, bringing full bags of different Frisbees to use for different courses, but to each his own. We had fun just messing around and we let people pass us as they needed to. Very fun, love getting out to GGP.

Great course for beginners and advanced disc golfers alike. A good mix of shots, three alt pin placements on each hole, and concrete tee pads. A well kept course for being in the middle of such a big city. Wish there were more like it.

A well maintained course of 18 holes that offers varying degrees of difficulty. The holes are changed often so this course has great replay value.

Patrick Brown and the volunteer crew do a great job at making and keeping this one of the best courses in the country.
It is absolutely breath taking. I allow myself one round for watching and then one for playing hard.
When I travel up from Socal I makes sure to put aside enough time to play GGP.
GGP is a well groomed wooded and meadows course. Teepads are concrete and provide exceptional grip. Pin position indicators at each tee are informative and accurate. Elevation of varying forms is a factor on nearly every hole.
Locals here are a great bunch. It’s «San Francisco», not San Fran, and definitely not Frisco. Leave your Dodgers cap at home.

By far the best kept course I’ve played on.
SFDGC, Patrick Brown & Co have done a great job with the progression and improvements in the course!
Just finished playing in the course’s 6^th birthday bash and really enjoyed the unique lay out. Definitely a challenge even for someone who plays there often.

This is the best disc park I’ve ever played. Very well taken care of! Awesome place and awesome views. Terrain is awesome! I live in Dallas, TX and it makes me want to move their just for this park!

SF boast a very nice DG course. It’s clean, the people are nice and the weather was amazing! A good mix of holes create a fun yet challenging course. My brother and I did end up Playing with a local to bad he was a D bag oh well still had fun. There were some elementary kids doing some community service by cleaning up trash on hole #2 very awesome kids!

This course is pretty awesome.
Clear directions as to where the basket is and where the next one starts.
The people that volunteer to keep up this course sure deserve a PBR and a shot of Jameson for all the work that they do as I have never once seen the park in bad condition.
If you are there towards nightfall watch out as it becomes extremely easy to lose your discs.

my buddy mark and I came out for 18 holes, it was just too good, we played 36. (last time I was here they only had 9! The course was really well maintained, and many folks were getting ready for the tournament next week. We are gonna make this a weekly thing!
May wanna get an early start on the weekends, 8am or 9am since large groups can slow down the game.
Get out there and play!

Only played the front 9 today. It’s a great course. It’s well laid out and challenging, but not too hard or frustrating. It’s probably the 2^nd or 3^rd best course I’ve played. I’ve heard it’s normally really busy, but I didn’t experience that today. I recommend it highly.

An incredibly well made park that not only is beautiful but technical. I enjoy the occasional jaunt to San Francisco’s exquisite Golden Gate Park.
Always challenging and always changing this course has a fresh feel each time you play it. It’s clean (when the vagrants come around and pick-​up all of the cans) and well maintained by the local Disc Golf Club.
Help keep an eye out for everyone’s disc because this place can get a little over-​grown at times. Stay on the paths and watch for flying discs, They can really, really hurt.

I love to take on new activities, especially those that are fun and get you out of the house on a nice day. Disc Golf is very challenging and fun, it’s free to play on the course and discs can be very affordable. Here are few things I have learned about Disc Golf in the last couple weeks:
1.) Playing golf does not give you the advantage, playing with Frisbee discs is a completely new game. I’m still trying to get the hang of it, but at least I didn’t injure anyone this time. I tagged someone in the gut last time, after they moved out of the way to avoid me. I’m a terrible shot and I admit it, but I’m getting better.
2.) The Disc Golf courses are really beautiful, I really enjoy walking around the park, the course is very scenic, especially when your disc floats into a bush and you have to play from there. Enjoy Nature!
3.) Disc Golfers are pretty laid back, they seem to enjoy themselves — music, drinks and even brought their pets. I met some pretty nice people this past weekend while out with my friend. They didn’t seem to mind I was taking out one tree at a time with my disc.
I really had a great time, especially since I wasn’t keeping score. I’ll get better as time goes on, as I do with any activity. I’ll be out to play again in Golden Gate Park, so watch out for flying discs! HEADS UP!!!
