South Pines Disc Golf Course
13917 S Park Dr
Magalia, CA
One of the newest additions to Butte County’s lineup of courses is a project of Magalia Community Park (a 501c non-profit) called the South Pines course in Magalia, at the site of the former Paradise Pines regular "ball golf" course. This new disc golf haven has already proven popular not only for its beautiful location, but for its reasonable price and friendliness toward disc golfers of different skill levels. It’s a long 18-hole gauntlet put together by up-and-coming local designer Jacob Bates that will nicely stretch any user’s $5 entry fee, and it includes a variety of tee types, generally flat terrain, and even a few par 4 holes.

Peregrine Point
8715 Deer Creek Hwy
Chico, CA
One of the most popular courses in Butte County is situated in Upper Bidwell Park’s beautiful Peregrine Point, an 18-hole course of over 5,300 feet over rocky terrain with stunning views of the valley below. This challenging course will require more robust equipment due to the rocky terrain, so make sure you leave your weaker discs at home (and bring good walking shoes).

Sherwood Forest Kids' Disc Golf Course
Wildwood Ave
Chico, CA
For beginners or those looking to practice their short game, anyone who doesn’t feel like walking a great deal, or those who haven’t yet graduated to more advanced courses, Sherwood Forest Kids’ Disc Golf Course at Hooker Oak Park is great for practicing shorter throws. While it’s only 9 holes, and it gets some thorns and occasional snakes during the hotter months, it’s a perfect location for families. All 9 holes are under 300 feet, making it an ideal spot for groups with kids or seniors especially.

Riverbend Park North is the first of two 18-hole courses located at Oroville’s Riverbend Park. Always a nice place to walk, the combination of open spaces and rolling hills makes for a somewhat varied course that’s friendly to beginners, and makes a great warm-up to the more challenging South course. The South course at Riverbend Park is significantly more challenging than its northern counterpart. With narrower shots and more terrain challenges to contend with (watch out for losing your discs in the long grass!), this more technical course will appeal to an intermediate or advanced crowd.
