Named the third best new public golf course in America in 1994 and ranked eighth best in state in 1997 by Golf Digest, Cambrian Ridge offers the greatest change in elevation of any course on the Trail. Coined "The Hidden Jewel on the Trail", Cambrian Ridge is set on the highest point in Butler County, Alabama which allows every golfer a most enjoyable and scenic round of golf.
The Loblolly nine, with its gently rolling fairways, cathedral-like pines, and water fronted greens, exudes a stately, Augusta-like quality.
The Canyon nine, carved from former hunting grounds where deer blinds remain nailed to the hardwood, is a thrilling stretch of target-style golf with hole #1 being a 501-yard par four that drops 200 feet from tee to fairway.
DIRECTIONS: From I-65 take Exit 130. Go northwest on Hwy 263 for two blocks and take a left at the Exxon station. Then travel approximately 4 miles to a 4-way stop sign (County 44). Proceed straight to clubhouse.
