About Shining Mountain Golf Course and Event Center
Set at 8,250 feet in the mountains above Woodland Park, Shining Mountain Golf Course plays through stands of tall pines with views of Pikes Peak. It is the only golf course in Teller County and serves as a gathering point for golfers in the surrounding area.
The layout runs 18 holes and makes use of significant elevation change across the alpine terrain. A clubhouse overlooking the course gives players a place to sit after a round, and the property also operates as an event center.
