About This Course

Gifu Motosu Country Club is an 18-hole golf course set in the rolling hills of Motosu City, Gifu Prefecture. Opened in 1975, it features a strategic layout that skillfully uses the natural terrain, with many elevated greens requiring precise shots. The course measures 6,241 yards and remains lush year-round thanks to overseeding on the fairways. Notable holes include a challenging long 9th hole and a short 17th with a valley carry. Players can enjoy smooth rounds using five-seat electric carts. Practice facilities include a driving range and areas for bunker and approach shots. Access is convenient by car or train with nearby taxi service.

Playing Tips

Approach shots often finish on elevated greens, so be precise and consider clubbing up for uphill approaches while targeting the center of the green.

The long 9th hole rewards distance but punishes errant shots—prioritize accuracy off the tee and plan layups to avoid water and bunkers.

The short 17th requires a confident carry over a valley—commit to your club selection and factor in any wind in the hollow.

Although the overall yardage is moderate, the course’s frequent elevation changes make yardage judgment and club selection critical on every hole.

Greens are a mix of Bermudagrass and Bentgrass so expect seasonal changes in speed and grain; read slopes and grain carefully, especially in summer when Bermuda grain can affect putts.

Weather & Seasonal Information

Local Weather Patterns

Being inland in Gifu’s rolling hills, expect hot, humid summers with a rainy season in June and occasional typhoons in late summer, mild and stable conditions in spring and autumn, cool winters with occasional light snow, and often gusty winds on exposed tees and ridges.

Best Season to Play

Late spring (May) and autumn (September–November) when temperatures are mild, greens are in good condition and foliage can be attractive; avoid the June rainy season and the peak summer heat.
