Reviewed: Played on:Oct 26, 2017 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

Played in late Oct so undergrowth manageable. Great 18 hole challenging course with plenty of variety, as previously stated. Tees were all present with throwing edge and all the baskets looked new (excellent condition). The laminated signs indicating direction to the next tee were extremely helpful as the online map was difficult to follow with the scale of the park. Note - the lake at hole 3 has dried up (thankfully).

Cons:

Not a beginners course. Very hilly so a considerable degree of strenuous exercise. Took 2 hours to complete course, once we'd found all the tees and baskets. Although all of the tees were present, some had no map for the hole on the post. Many of the baskets were not numbered but downloading the course map helped. We found no tee direction signs from the baskets to the subsequent tees for Tees 4, 12 and 14 but found them after some searching. Here the map didn't help because of the size and terrain of this excellent park. Our first round was impeded by the popularity of the park with walkers, joggers, bikers, etc so early morning midweek is optimal. Be aware that the drive up to the car park indicated by the coordinates is extremely steep and narrow but thankfully there was a small car park/turning area lower down the hill where we were able to park.

Other Thoughts:

A very challenging course for our standard but loved it! And managed not to lose any discs. Detoured our return route in order to play another round. Will be back again!!

A fun challenge 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Nov 13, 2015 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

Beautiful setting, a hike in the woods, plenty of variation. Great views of Brive. A fun course for average to experienced players, doable but difficult in places for beginners. A great test of accuracy with plenty of trees. Not overly long, but some opportunities for distance drives. In the past few months, the course has installed some new baskets (which now have hole numbers on them) and tees which have made it a great place to play!

Cons:

Some long/confusing hole to tee walks.
On weekend and holiday afternoons, the course becomes difficult to play because of other park-goers who are unaware of the disc golf course around them. When the park is busy, holes 1, 2, 6, 8, 13, and 18 can be nearly impossible to play.
Thorns!

Other Thoughts:

Make sure to download the map before you go: http://discgolfbriviste.jimdo.com/parcours/
Don't wear shorts, as a wayward shot is likely to find thorns.
When in doubt, stick with straight shots, there's plenty of room for trouble here.
Try to visit on weekdays or weekend mornings, when the crowds are thinner.
