Whale Rock Disc Golf Course Coming Soon!
For the past few months my brother Max has been hard at work on a project we are all very excited to open up to our members. Starting on August 2nd we will be opening up the Whale Rock Disc Golf Course and Ranch Tour, which features a premier 18-hole Disc Golf course nestled amongst the vines in our Whale Rock Vineyard. The course features stunning vineyard views and takes patrons through a two-mile loop that is suitable for all ages. The course is available to Castoro members only with different membership options available. (More details and directions HERE)
You may be asking yourself, what is disc golf? Played much like traditional golf, disc golf uses a disc in the place of ball and clubs. The intent of the game is to throw a disc into an elevated metal basket. The player moves from “tee” to “hole”, the trees, shrubs and terrain change in and around the “fairways” which provide challenging obstacles. Ultimately, the “putt” is tossed into the basket and the hole is completed. The goal of disc golf is to complete the course in the fewest number of shots.
Why Disc Golf? Disc golf is uniquely passive in nature and our Family has always been fond of low impact outdoor activities. Whether it be camping, backpacking, climbing, surfing or backcountry skiing you can count us in! We feel it is very important for all to get in touch with the whole wine making process and we want to spread the importance of sustainable farming practices by getting you and your family out in the vineyard!
Disc Golf is really an all-ages sport and all skill levels can truly enjoy the experience. If nothing else it is an entertaining way to spend time amongst the vines and learn more about what makes the Paso Robles appellation so special. On Saturday August 2nd we will kick-off the course with a tournament for club members followed by a catered lunch and craft beer/wine tasting. For details on the tournament click HERE!
We hope to see you out on the course soon!
Cheers,
Luke
