Playing Tips

With 16 holes featuring ponds and creeks, conservative tee shots that favor the safe side of fairways will minimize penalty strokes.

At 7,233 yards and hilly terrain, the course rewards accuracy over sheer distance, so favor fairway woods and long irons off the tee when trouble looms.

Greens are highly undulating and maintained to tournament standards, so aim for the correct side of the green to leave manageable downhill or sidehill putts.

Wind can be variable on exposed ridges and elevated holes, so check direction and adjust club selection accordingly.

Plan lay-ups to avoid water hazards and treat creek crossings conservatively rather than chasing heroic line-of-sight shots.

Weather & Seasonal Information

Local Weather Patterns

The course sits in inland Hyogo with a humid temperate climate: a rainy season in June–July, hot humid summers with possible typhoons in late summer, and mild cool winters; hilltops can experience variable winds and autumn tends to be the clearest period.

Best Season to Play

Autumn (October–November) is the best time to visit for vivid fall foliage and generally stable, dry weather, with spring (April–May) also offering pleasant conditions; avoid the rainy season (June–July) and typhoon-prone late summer.
