Playing Tips

Expect frequent elevation changes so allow for uphill and downhill club selection when planning tee and approach shots.

Many holes are framed by natural woodland, so prioritize accuracy off the tee rather than trying to overpower the course to avoid blocked or difficult recovery shots.

Wind in the mountain valley can be variable and often increases in the afternoon, so check conditions and adjust club selection for gusts.

Bentgrass greens are receptive and tend to roll true, so focus on precise distance control and read subtle breaks carefully.

The layout rewards strategic play and position over pure distance, so favor conservative placement to leave the best angles into protected greens.

Weather & Seasonal Information

Local Weather Patterns

The mountain setting at 500 m brings cool mornings and comfortable summers, with valley breezes that can become gusty in the afternoon, while spring and autumn are generally stable and pleasant; winter can be colder but the course is noted as largely playable year‑round.

Best Season to Play

Late spring through autumn (May–October) offers the most comfortable temperatures and clear views, with autumn foliage being especially attractive; winters are cooler so check conditions before playing.
