Located in East Tennessee, close to the Great Smoky Mountains, Morristown is the kind of place to spend a lot of time outdoors and has the perfect landscape for a disc golf course…or four. Known as Tennessee’s Disc Golf Capital™, you’ll find a course for every skill level. Which is why Morristown’s home to the annual Tennessee Disc Golf Championships, bringing 500+ competitors from 20+ states to town every June. Grab your discs and let’s explore them all!
Kiwanis Course at Wayne Hansard Park – This was the course that started it all. It opened in 2007 and remains a favorite to this day. This challenging 18-hole course is heavily wooded, which is part of the difficulty! The terrain is rocky and the elevation changes on each hole. A walking path weaves through, so be sure to look for any hikers in the area before you throw.
Rotary Course at Frank Lorino Park – Established in 2012, this course is a combination of two courses in one – short and long! It offers a mixture of open and wooded holes, making it great for beginners. Even so, it’s not too easy for advanced players—there’s still some technical shots that make the course fun no matter your skill level!
Cherokee Park Course – Also added in 2012, it quickly became a staple. You’ll see some beautiful lake views here. Just like the others, there’s a mix of open and wooded holes, but elevation changes add an extra challenge since you will be throwing both up and down hills. Veering off the path could cost you an extra shot or two!
Panther Creek Course – This championship course opened in 2017. Located inside a state park, this course is not for the faint of heart. It’s Morristown’s most difficult course, featuring elevation and a mix of long, open shots and technically difficult, wooded fairways. You will never get tired of playing this course, even if you might get tired from the hike!
