Playing Tips

The hilly 27‑hole layout rewards accurate tee shots because narrow, tree‑lined fairways will heavily penalize wayward drives.

Significant elevation changes mean you should club up for long uphill holes and club down on downhill approaches to avoid misjudged distances.

Bentgrass greens are generally receptive but feature subtle contours, so take extra time to read breaks and control approach speed.

Wind can amplify on exposed ridgelines at about 260 m elevation, so monitor gusts and adjust your club selection and target lines accordingly.

Use the cart to move efficiently between tees and greens and inspect sightlines from elevated tees before committing to aggressive shots.

Weather & Seasonal Information

Local Weather Patterns

The Aga highland is generally cooler than the lowlands with refreshing breezes in summer, frequent early-morning fog, a humid rainy season around June–July, variable gusty winds on exposed ridgelines, and heavy snow and freezing conditions in winter.

Best Season to Play

Best played in late spring (May–June) for comfortable temperatures and firmer greens and in autumn (October–November) for clear skies and colorful foliage, while winter should be avoided due to snow and frost.
