Playing Tips

This long, hilly 6952-yard layout rewards accuracy off the tee more than pure distance, so favor controlled tee shots over max power.

Large white bunkers and expansive water hazards guard many landing areas and approach shots, so plan conservative routes to avoid big numbers.

Bentgrass greens demand precise distance control and a delicate short game around the hole, so prioritize well-placed approaches and lag putts.

Holes near the clubhouse, notably the 9th and 18th, offer elevated views and can be wind-exposed, so check wind direction and club selection on each tee.

Weather & Seasonal Information

Local Weather Patterns

Shiga's inland Kansai climate brings hot, humid summers with a rainy season and possible typhoons in late summer, mild springs and crisp autumns ideal for golf, and cool winters with occasional light snow at higher elevations.

Best Season to Play

Best played in spring (April–May) and autumn (October–November) when temperatures are mild and course conditions are most pleasant; avoid the rainy season and peak summer heat.
