Located in Hoffman Park next to the dog park, Walnut Hollow is a sprawling, 18-hole course set on 36 acres of land. The course, which traverses some of the best landscapes including some flat and some rolling terrains, is designed to be enjoyed by players of all ages and abilities. Players encounter tree hedgerows, old agriculture fields, and farmstead areas along the course to create an interesting and challenging experience for players of all ages and skill levels. Concrete tee pads with signage on hole location, distance and par are at each hole. A smaller 6-hole family course provides a shorter track perfect for introducing the sport to children and adult beginners. Plus, an on-site parking lot, bathrooms and covered picnic area set the scene for a family afternoon of disc golf fun and picnicking. The course is open dawn to dusk and is free for all to enjoy. Players must provide their own discs to play.
