(Grimes, IA) -- The City of Grimes is moving forward on plans for a MultiGolf course, the first of its kind in the state of Iowa. MultiGolf is combines foot golf, park golf, and disc golf.

City of Grimes Spokeswoman Whitney Tucker says the 18-hole course will be on 14-acres at SE 54th Street and 100th Street, next to the planned Iowa Ortho Surgery Center.

“The idea for MultiGolf Park started in Europe with courses in Finland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, and Germany,” said 2009 Disc Golf World Champion and DiscGolfPark Sales Manager/Course Designer, Avery Jenkins. “The United States currently has one MultiGolf Park in Houston, TX that was installed and completed in January 2022.”

The Glenstone MultiGolf Park is expected to open in the summer of 2023.

Tucker says it'll be yet another amenity in the growing suburb northwest of Des Moines, which has a population around 16,000. Grimes has recently added a splash pad, Grimes Plex, and new library.
