Playing Tips

Choose course combinations wisely because the Central and South courses are relatively flat and forgiving while the North course is longer and more demanding.

Take advantage of the GPS-equipped four-seater carts and fairway access (weather permitting) to manage distances and conserve energy between shots.

Account for lake breezes on exposed holes by checking wind direction and often clubbing up to avoid coming up short.

Greens are bentgrass and generally receptive, so focus on hitting the correct approach and read subtle breaks carefully when putting.

Weather & Seasonal Information

Local Weather Patterns

Lake Biwa influences local winds, producing breezy conditions on exposed holes; summers are humid with a rainy season in June–July and possible typhoons in late summer, while winters are relatively mild with chilly mornings and rare snow.

Best Season to Play

Spring (April–May) and autumn (September–November) offer mild temperatures and stable conditions, while the rainy season and typhoon-prone late summer and the peak summer heat are less ideal.
