Though the Rocky Mountains are known for some of the best skiing in the western world, lesser known and equally amazing are the Rocky Mountains as a golfing destination. Vail Valley is home to more than a dozen world-class Colorado golf courses and at the center of the valley is The Ritz-Carlton, Bachelor Gulch. The guests of The Ritz-Carlton, Bachelor Gulch enjoy special privileges and access to many of the Vail Valley's private golf clubs, including the Fazio and Norman Courses at the exclusive Red Sky Golf Club, recently rated in "Top 100 Courses to Play" by Golf Magazine. New this year, guests of The Ritz-Carlton will also have access to the private Beaver Creek Golf Course nestled at the base of the luxury resort.
