Hole 1

Hole Name

From The Tee The first tee shot is a grateful start to the round, as only major misses are punished.

From The Fairway However, you should not underestimate this hole, as the difficulty only becomes apparent when approaching the green, which is defended by a bunker at the front and slopes steeply towards the back, which can lead to some unexpected lost shots.

On The Green So it's important to get the ball safely onto the green and you're off to a good start.

Hole 2

Hole Name

From The Tee The second hole can seem deceptive due to its seemingly spacious fairway, as the entire area slopes sharply to the right from the tee.

From The Fairway However, the counter-reaction of playing the ball to the left comes dangerously close to exclusion. The first real tester, as the hole is very long and only good shots allow you to reach the hole in handicap.

On The Green After teeing off, these shots have to be maneuvered around a fairway bunker and, last but not least, hit onto a slightly higher green, which is defended by a powerful bunker on the right and lush rough on the left

Hole 3

Hole Name

From The Tee You won't find any relaxation here after hole 2. Although it is a short, sloping par 3, only one green hit counts here on a narrow green which is surrounded by bunkers on the right, left and back.

From The Fairway If you want to allow yourself a failure, it should only be short, as from here an up-and-down of short-mown grass offers the greatest probability of success.

Hole 4

Hole Name

From The Tee A hole with a variety of game options. Tactically oriented players choose the short tee shot in front of the stream in the middle of the lane, but long hitters can gain a real advantage here with a long tee shot over the obstacle.

From The Fairway Because the shorter the path to this highly demanding green consisting of two levels, the greater the chance of leaving it with a good score.

On The Green Especially when the flag is on the upper part of the wave, less than 10 meters away from the end. A famous and feared flag position.

Hole 5

Hole Name

From The Tee The fifth tee shot is made more difficult by the same stream that gave us a headache on hole 4. So it's important to present again on this short par 4, but be careful, the terrain sloping towards the stream has made many a ball that was believed to be safe wet.

From The Fairway

On The Green So once you have chosen the right club, you still have about 100 meters to attack the extremely small green and hopefully avoid the bunkers at the front and left of the green.

Hole 6

Hole Name

From The Tee The second par 5 of the round, although shorter than hole 2, has many pitfalls that can quickly ruin a good start.

From The Fairway You shouldn't have any false pride here and turn left on this strong dogleg to the right far enough to avoid the trees and especially the lake.

On The Green Long hitters can ignore this advice and aim for the bunker, or even to the right of it, and then hopefully reach the par 5 green with their second shot. But be careful!

Hole 7

Hole Name

From The Tee The signature hole of the course that every guest remembers fondly. At least from a landscape perspective.

From The Fairway Because this par 3 is defended according to all the rules of golf course art and from this distance between the lake on the right and the deep front and back green bunkers, the green appears more like a postage stamp, which is also divided into two plateaus in the middle by a wave.

On The Green If you come here from the green you can really be proud of yourself!

Hole 8

Hole Name

From The Tee The third hole in a row that winds around our lake in the middle of the golf course. However, it is not only important to stay away from the water on the left, but also on the right from two fairway bunkers, which make it difficult to get to the distant green.

From The Fairway Once you have mastered this stage, a demanding shot into a well-defended green follows, which can be described as anything from feasible to diabolical, depending on the position of the flag.

Hole 9

Hole Name

From The Tee The hole 9 is designed in the form of a par 5. The drive landing zone is divided by a bunker in the middle of the fairway.

From The Fairway

On The Green Long hitters can overplay the bunker carry here and give themselves the chance to reach with the second shot. For everyone else, the goal must be to reach this uphill hole in handicap by hitting in front of the bunker.

Hole 10

Hole Name

From The Tee Hole 10 is an almost right-angled dogleg to the left, which must be played exactly at the bend, as a dense collection of trees punishes a shot that is too short in that you either have a blind shot or no shot at all into the green.

From The Fairway

On The Green However, you will be rewarded for a good tee shot with a short shot into the green, which can lead to stroke gains if the symmetrical-looking green is not missed into one of its two bunkers.

Hole 11

Hole Name

From The Tee The eleventh hole is one of the most diverse on our golf course. The tee shot here serves as a pure transport shot which ideally has to be played on the left hand side of the fairway, as the green is hidden by trees on the right side and would require a shot over a water hazard.

From The Fairway If you hit the narrow fairway, you now have to hit the right plateau in the green. Furthermore, you should be careful of sideways mishits, as there is a greenside bunker on the left and a steep slope towards the out on the right.

Hole 12

Hole Name

From The Tee The twelfth tee offers a good overview of the straight path, which is only made more difficult by two fairway bunkers, one on the right and one on the left.

From The Fairway However, the pitfalls of this fairway become apparent to the golfer once they reach the green. It hangs heavily from back to front with an extreme slope at the front, which sends balls that are too short back and off the green.

On The Green A precise approach is therefore essential here. If you are too close to the protective fence on the green, there are two drop zones to continue playing.

Hole 13

Hole Name

From The Tee Tee number 13 requires a shot over a water hazard, and ideally over a hill behind it. Once you have achieved this, hitting the green is much easier.

From The Fairway Because this approach does not forgive mistakes. Although the green is relatively large, it is defended by a long bunker at the front and steep slopes on all sides.

On The Green If the area around the green is dry in summer, these slopes inevitably lead the balls out of bounds.

Hole 14

Hole Name

From The Tee The fourteenth tee is a dogleg to the right, which can, however, be seen almost completely.

From The Fairway The trees on the right only pose a danger for long hitters, as a fairly high hit is required to shorten.

On The Green The open course is only disturbed again by a bunker about 50 meters in front of the green, which must be avoided at all costs. After that you have to hit a spacious and little defended green. A good opportunity to improve your score.

Hole 15

Hole Name

From The Tee Even if it is the easiest to guess, this hole also has its difficulties that it is better not to fall into.

From The Fairway A slightly forward greenside bunker is just one of three that protects this medium-long par 3, creating a visually challenging hole from the tee.

On The Green Once you get to the green, however, you will find a slightly undulating putting surface.

Hole 16

Hole Name

From The Tee The 16th hole requires a precise tee shot, as there are trees to the right of the fairway and the familiar poplars to the left.

From The Fairway Try to hit your tee shot onto the hilltop as this is the easiest shot onto the highly elevated green. Long hitters can reach the back of the hill and get up to 50 meters from the green.

On The Green However, caution is advised here, as the closer the course gets to the green, it becomes narrower and more closely surrounded by trees. Now it's time to play over the large front bunker and you've mastered the climb to the green.

Hole 17

Hole Name

From The Tee Hole 17 is a very difficult par 3 for which you will need all your strength. The long par 3, which often plays into a headwind, is defended from the front by a moat that extends to the left side of the green.

From The Fairway On the right the green is defended by a bunker. So there are two options here. Risk a lot and try to hit the ball directly onto the green or use the fairway and put it in front of the water to choose a safe path. Either way, good shots are required.

Hole 18

Hole Name

From The Tee You have now reached the last hole and finally there is no more water in sight. However, you have to watch out for another Main Taunus feature here.

From The Fairway The characteristic poplar trees that stretch close to the fairway on the left hand side. However, you shouldn't avoid them too far, as there are three large bunkers on the other side of the fairway that will happily swallow up every slice.

On The Green Now they have to hit the green that lies across the fairway, which is defended along its entire length by a bunker at the back and a smaller bunker at the front right.
