The disc golf course features nine concrete tee pads, with nine metal basket targets. Alternate basket locations have been identified on four holes, with two on holes 2, 6 and 8, and three on the 9th hole. In 2024, players can expect these baskets to periodically be moved to these optional locations.

This aerial view of the south shore shows the various segments of the Lake Panorama trail system. The green trail is the largest loop, with the red, blue, yellow and orange trails offering a variety of distances and views.

John Worth and his son Jesse Worth stand beside the basket on the first hole of the Lake Panorama disc golf course. John did most of the design of the course, with input from Jesse.

Brown fiberglass posts are located at each junction of the trail system. There are five trail options, each designated with a different color. This marker shows the blue trail to the right, and the green trail continuing straight. Also shown is one of the blue fiberglass posts that designate the Panorama Schools cross country trail.

A fenced driveway begins at 5501 Chimra Road and leads to this parking lot that allows walk-through access to the south shore recreation area. Beyond the shelter are two markers, one points right to the first hole of the golf course, the other points left to the trail system.

A portion of the Panorama Schools cross country trails for both junior high and high school runners is along a meadow area of native plants that cover 30 acres of land in the Conservation Reserve Program Pollinator Habitat Initiative.

Mark Dorhout and Steve Brannan had help from three eighth graders as they installed bluebird houses in the recreation area on Lake Panorama’s south shore. Shown left to right are Dorhout, Brannan, Cruz Stanley, Braden Bahrenfuss and Brody Steenblock.

This shelter was built last fall near the south shore recreation parking lot, with the picnic table added early this spring. Brown sign posts near the shelter point the way to the beginnings of the disc golf course to the right, and the trail system to the left.

This bluebird house is located near the main trailhead to the Lake Panorama trail system, tucked into a shady spot. A total of 16 birdhouses were installed on posts in various locations along the trail system, with some along the shoreline and some, like this one, in the meadow area.

The fifth hole on the Lake Panorama disc golf course is a straight shot of 150 feet through a mild ravine to the basket on the other side. The hole is characterized by many trees and a tight fairway choke point of about 10 feet wide. The hole is sponsored by Hawkeye Molding, which is owned by Lana Leander and Ryan Gruhn. The couple also has donated a bench, which will be installed near this tee box.

Caution signs now are in place in three locations where the walking trail and disc golf fairways are close to each other.

The sixth hole on the Lake Panorama disc golf course is one of four holes that will eventually have two options for basket placements. One will be 225 feet from the tee box, with another 275 feet. This hole features a couple of trees in the middle of the fairway that players need to navigate. The hole is sponsored by Joshua & Mariah Tuggle, who chose the words “Tuggle & Cates Family” for their sign.

A welcome sign recently was installed near the entrance to the Lake Panorama south shore recreation area. It includes a graphic of Lake Panorama, history of the project, donor recognition, rules and emergency contacts.

A sign at the trailhead of the Lake Panorama south shore trail was installed in late June. It includes a map of the trail system, trail option descriptions, and details on the native plants and wildlife along the trails.

Four signs were installed in late May near the entrance to the disc golf course on Lake Panorama’s south shore. The large welcome sign includes a course map. Smaller signs feature rules for recreational play, a UDisc QR code to access the course map on a smart phone, and a warning sign about poison ivy.
