Ironbridge Golf Club

Glenwood Springs, CO

Ironbridge Golf Club, an 18-hole alpine course in Glenwood Springs, was originally designed by Arthur Hills and refined by Tom Lehman, offering a truly breathtaking golf experience. Hills' design philosophy often emphasizes working with the natural contours of the land, and at Ironbridge, this translates into a course that seamlessly integrates with its dramatic mountain setting. The 'Lost Horizon' stretch of holes, starting the back nine, is particularly memorable, winding through the foothills with stunning views. While no single hole is officially designated as the 'signature,' the 11th hole, a 161-yard par-3, is often cited for its unique character. The course is renowned for its scenic beauty, with views of red-hued mountains, the Roaring Fork River, and Mt. Sopris. Ironbridge has been recognized by Golf Digest as one of Colorado's best, offering a challenging yet rewarding round amidst an idyllic mountain community.
