This course, designed by Jack Nicklaus, frequently hosts the Canadian Open. It is an attraction in itself with many dramatic holes that take advantage of the canyon-like valley of Sixteen-Mile Creek for abrupt elevation changes, natural hazards, and scenic beauty. There are hiking trails throughout the Sixteen Mile Creek Valley, and a walk or drive over the Upper-Middle bridge will give a view of the valley holes and forest which is especially appealing in fall when the colours change. Glen Abbey also houses the Canadian Golf Hall of Fame and a restaurant (in the clubhouse) for fine dining.
Glen Abbey Golf Club is a public golf course in Oakville, Ontario, Canada. It is one of Canada's most famous golf courses and is home to Golf Canada and the Canadian Golf Hall of Fame. It has hosted 30 Canadian Open Championships, more than any other course, with the first having been in 1977. It was the first solo design by Jack Nicklaus in 1976.
