Check out the Apple Ridge Multigolf Course

The Apple Ridge Multigolf Course is officially open. This exciting new amenity for Montgomery Village residents provides a great opportunity to get outside, soak in the natural beauty, and engage in some friendly competition. The course came to life through the thoughtful planning and efforts of the MVF Recreation Committee, staff and community volunteers.

This brand-new 9-hole course, located at 10120 Apple Ridge Road, begins next to the MVF Office and ends at the Apple Ridge Recreation Area. A pedestrian tunnel under the road connects the two sections, making it easy to navigate. Gather your players at the MVF Administrative Office parking lot, where maps and scorecards are available to pick up at the beginning of the course. Follow the map and tee signs to enjoy either part of the course or tackle all 9 holes. The course is open to all during park hours, sunrise to 30 minutes after sunset; no registration or tee times are required. Best of all, the course is free to use. Just bring your own discs or soccer ball to play.

Multigolf is a fairly new sport, with fewer than 10 courses in the country. It combines footgolf, which has grown in popularity since its inception in 2008, and disc golf, already a regional favorite. Both options are played like traditional golf, but instead of using a club and golf balls, players use a soccer ball or a disc to complete the course in the fewest number of strokes.

A guide on how to play, the course rules and a map are available here. Once on the page, navigate to "Multigolf Course" in the green menu on the right. Use this guide to familiarize yourself with the course and plan your outing.

Whether you are new to these sports or a seasoned player, this course has something for everyone. It is a low-impact sport with no running or catching required, making it easy to play at your own pace. Strength isn’t the deciding factor — accuracy and finesse win the day. Soccer players can work on precision and control without the hustle of a full game, and frisbee fans can add a fun, laid-back challenge to their throws. 

So why not try it? Come enjoy the Apple Ridge Multigolf Course. It’s a fun, fresh way to stay active in Montgomery Village!
