Playing Tips

The front nine is hilly with ponds and out-of-bounds, so prioritize accuracy off the tee and controlled approach shots to avoid penalty areas.

The back nine plays more like a wooded, mostly flat course, so course management and keeping the ball in the fairway will pay off.

The 15th and 18th are notably long finishing holes that require strong long shots and careful club selection to reach greens in regulation.

Well-maintained bentgrass greens can be quick and true, so be conservative with speed and take time to read subtle breaks.

Weather & Seasonal Information

Local Weather Patterns

At about 600 m elevation the course is cooler than the lowlands, often breezy on exposed holes, with morning dew or fog in spring and autumn and weather that can change quickly.

Best Season to Play

Late spring through early summer (April–June) and autumn (September–November) offer the most comfortable temperatures, firmer playing conditions, and clear visibility, with autumn providing pleasant foliage.
