Ranking the Best Disc Golf Courses in Every Country: 2023

If you're curious about some of the details behind the rankings, here are the basics:

How did you find all the courses?
As we mentioned earlier, thanks to disc golfers across the world, UDisc Courses is the most comprehensive and frequently updated disc golf course directory in existence. A course had to be in the UDisc directory to make it into this post.
Were any kinds of courses ineligible?
Temporary courses were ineligible for this list as were object courses (i.e., courses using trees, lamp posts, or other targets not specifically installed for disc golf).

Additionally, courses that were rated under three stars in the directory or did not have at least five reviews were not included in most cases. However, we eliminated those thresholds if it meant a country/nation would be entirely omitted from this post despite having a permanent course.
How did you create the rankings?
The rankings are based on a methodology that applies more weight to recent reviews and helps identify which courses with excellent but relatively few ratings are true destinations rather than just local faves. Always interested in improving, we've worked to enhance how well this year's ranking system accounts for the wide range of experience behind disc golfers' course ratings.

Notably, due to this methodology, some courses that have higher average ratings in the UDisc Courses directory may be ranked below courses with lower average ratings.

All courses were subject to the same metrics, and no course was moved up or down the rankings based on the preferences of UDisc staff.
Why are some courses that have lower average ratings on UDisc Courses ranked above courses with higher average ratings?
The answers to "How did you create the rankings?" explain how this could happen.

What to Know Before Reading the Rankings

You'll find the results listed alphabetically by country name (i.e., we start at Australia's top courses and end with Zambia's). You can also just jump to a specific country's top disc golf courses from the countries list.
Not every country has five disc golf courses or five that met our typical criteria for inclusion. In these cases, you'll see fewer than five courses for a country.
A number of the courses are on military or private school property and inaccessible to most guests. Please review a course carefully on UDisc Courses before planning to visit it.
Mobile and tablet users can swipe left/right on any table to see all columns.
Each course's name is linked to its UDisc Courses page. There you can see photos, reviews, availability, and more of any course in the table.
The ▲ and ▼ refer to how a course's rank within its country's top five relates to its position last year. "Same" means a course's position didn't alter and "New" means a course wasn't in the top five in 2022.
The rankings in this list may differ from what appears on countries' Disc Golf Places pages. We used slightly different calculations to create these tables than what you'll find on Disc Golf Places. Additionally, rankings on Disc Golf Places will change throughout the year as disc golfers experience and rate courses.
