Golfing at high altitudes presents a unique challenge and opportunity. The thin air allows your golf shots to travel further, but mastering distance control becomes crucial. Stay hydrated, especially as activities at higher altitudes can lead to faster dehydration. Golfing in Colorado might leave you a bit breathless due to the elevation, so it’s wise to pace yourself.
If you’re new to golfing in high-altitude environments, consider starting with nine holes on the first day to allow your body to adjust. Gradually progress to eighteen holes the next day for an optimal experience. Elevate your golf game amidst the breathtaking scenery of Buena Vista and Salida, where each swing is surrounded by the natural beauty of the Colorado Rockies.
