Info
Geelong’s first public Disc Golf course. Installed in late 2013 at Barwon Valley Fun Park, situated on the banks of the Barwon River, running right through the heart of Geelong.
This park is typically well utilised by families, dog walkers, and various other river users. Originally installed with 9 baskets and 9 tees (the front 9), the course has since been updated with 9 additional tees (the back 9), combining for 18 unique holes.

•Proseasy flow around the course, tees are easy to find,
ConsNot a lot of variation. Most holes are open grass with just a couple of tree challenged holes. As others have said, the wind is 'interesting' especially when it can change direction by 90 degrees in just a few minutes. Also, be prepared to lose a favourite disc or two in the river!

•ProsGreat length for a 9 hole course. Technical holes that make you work for birdies. Clear signage and has a handy practice basket. Stunning location by the Barwon River.
ConsCan get pretty windy. Distance may be challenging to beginners. Some holes run across paths. Very flat course.

•ProsGreat facilities in a really nice park. Concrete tee pads.
ConsI personally just find the course fairly boring. A lot of open, flat forehand bomber holes. Hole 1, 7 and 8 are cool though. Mach III spit outs.

•ProsFun local course, good use of space available. Fun wooded hole to start the round. Beautiful location on the river with good access to car parking and amenities nearby. Can get crazy windy forcing you to learn how to throw the right disc in wind.
ConsVery flat with one hilly exception. Park gets quite busy so some holes playing across or near paths experience delays. Can get crazy windy making some throws extra difficult

•ProsFun course, great for beginners. The river along with the little lake can be precarious at times. Make sure you know how your discs fly in the wind.
ConsCan be long for beginners, very little variationm lots of open sir shots, holes 1, 6 and 7 are good fun though.

•ProsGood course and location. Degree of difficulty is suitable for players of all skill levels. Relatively flat but interesting holes with both nines being very different. All facilities nearby.

•ProsPicturesque course. Flat, short and very accessible for beginners.
ConsGrass was long when we played it, which bought the discs to a stop quickly.
