HOW IT WORKS

Pick a city

The course is drawn on the real street grid, so the map you play is the map you walk.

Putt to the pin

Drag to aim, release to swing. Buildings bounce and water costs you a stroke.

Sightsee between strokes

Every hole ends at an attraction. Sink the putt, read the story, walk to the next tee.

THE BOLTON ROUND - STOP BY STOP

HOLE 1 - PAR 4

Burrs Country Park

You will first notice the River Irwell, as Burrs Country Park is situated right on its banks. Located in the north of the town of Bury in Greater Manchester, England, this park provides a large open space for visitors to explore and enjoy. It was started in 1989 and covers a 36 hectares site. I find it is a great spot to stretch your legs and watch the water flow by while you take in the scenery. Whether you are just passing through the region or staying for the day, the scale of the grounds makes it a prominent landmark in the local area. It is the kind of place where you can really feel the open air and the presence of the river throughout your entire visit.
