Paa-Ko Ridge Golf Club

Sandia Park, NM — Carved into the dramatic high-desert landscape of the Sandia Mountains in Sandia Park, New Mexico, Paa-Ko Ridge Golf Club is a masterpiece of golf course design by Ken Dye. Opened in 2000 with an additional nine holes added in 2005, this 27-hole facility is consistently ranked among the nation's best public courses, lauded for its pristine conditions and breathtaking scenery. Dye's design philosophy at Paa-Ko Ridge embraces the natural contours of the land, integrating the piñon, juniper, and ponderosa pine forests with challenging elevation changes. Situated at 6,500 feet above sea level, the course offers exhilarating drives and panoramic views. While many consider every hole a signature, the par-3 8th, a memorable 265-yard challenge, and the distinctive 4th hole with its 100-yard, four-tiered green, exemplify the course's unique character. Paa-Ko Ridge has hosted notable events, including the 2017 Sun Country Amateur Golf Association tournament, solidifying its reputation as a premier golfing destination. It's a truly unforgettable experience for golfers seeking a strategic and visually stunning round.
