Discgolf
New trend sport outdoors
Disc Golf: Frisbee sport in Davos
The new trend sport Discgolf is a mixture of golf and Frisbee. The aim is to hit one of the baskets from a fixed tee with as few throws as possible. At Tschuggen in the Flüela Valley in Davos, there is a course with 18 baskets with different levels of difficulty.
Frisbee instead of ball and metal basket instead of hole: Discgolf is almost a bit like golf in concept. Players try to get the disc into the metal basket with as few throws as possible.
18 baskets for Discgolf on Tschuggen
Alone or in a group, you run through a course with 18 lanes at Tschuggen in Davos. From the drop point, you throw a Frisbee towards the basket. Wherever the disc lands, the next throw is played. The courses here on the Flüela Pass are between 24 and 140 metres long. Baskets one to nine are designed for beginners and children. From the tenth basket onwards, the level of difficulty increases.
Easy to learn
Disc golf is a sport that's quick to learn and requires minimal effort. No wonder this new trend sport is so popular with families. A starter set of three discs is available for as little as 40 Swiss francs at specialist retailers. Guests and locals can register on the Discgolf Davos website.
