The Highlands at Dove Mountain Golf Course

Tucked away at the base of the scenic Tortolita Mountains, this Arthur Hill-designed championship course features hilly terrain and meandering lakes that add up to a unique character.

Yes, all green, bunkers, and tee boxes are new. You might not get a tee time, very crowded since reopening. Very playable.

Ritz Carlton Golf Course Dove Mountain

This is a new golf course in the Tucson area and it is spectacular. I'd like to let others know about it!!!!

Reviewed By wicmeister - Tucson, United States

During a recent visit to the Old Pueblo I was fortunate enough to get a tee time at Dove Mountain. I'd been here on a number of occasions for the Match Play tournament and was salivating at the prospect of playing here. The course did NOT disappoint!! Fabulous conditions, staff was awesome and played well to top it all off! This course deserves any and all accolades it receives! Fairways are lush, greens are quick and true. Simply one of the very finest courses I've had the pleasure to play! Can't wait to do it again!!!

Wild Burro Trail

Reviewed By nbagdtx - Dallas, United States

This was the perfect hike for all ability levels. You can stay on a flat wider trail or veer off on steeper treacherous trails. There is beautiful scenery the entire way. We had ideal February weather. Be sure and bring sunscreen and plenty of water. We ended up wishing we had more water. We had long periods where we wouldn’t see another person and then would pass people going the other way. Great photo ops.
