Hole 1

Hole Name

From The Tee The most difficult shot on the first hole is the tee shot. On the left there is an exclusion zone and a dense rough in which many balls that were believed to be safe have already disappeared.

From The Fairway On the right the forest borders the fairway. In addition to a precise shot, players must pay attention to their alignment. Long hitters can attack the green with their second shot. Everyone else should place their second shot in the bend of the dogleg. From around 120 meters you can attack the deeper green with the third shot.

On The Green The green is defended on the sides by two bunkers. If you hit over the green, the ball lands in the thick rough. The green slopes to the front right, the putt from above can easily result in a three-putt.

Hole 2

Hole Name

From The Tee Hole 2 is a short par 3. The green is invisible from the tee and is defended by three bunkers, the middle one of which is best avoided.

From The Fairway

On The Green The green has 2 plateaus; The flag should not be played directly if it is placed on the right.

Hole 3

Hole Name

From The Tee A short par 4 with a sharp dogleg to the right. Long hitters try to hit their drive over the rough towards the green. But many attempts also end up in dense rough.

From The Fairway Players with medium and high handicaps can place their tee shot in the bend of the dogleg.

On The Green Hitting the green from about 100m is relatively easy from this position. The green itself is defended by two side bunkers.

Hole 4

Hole Name

From The Tee The longest track on the course, and also uphill. On this course it takes three really good shots to reach the green in regulation. The tee shot must be straight as the fairway is framed by dense rough on the right and left.

From The Fairway Additional difficulties are the bunkers on the right side of the fairway, which are exactly at the height of the landing zone for the tee shot. The second shot is a typical transport shot that should enable you to reach the green on the third shot.

On The Green The third blow is also difficult. The green is not visible from the fairway and is defended by three bunkers. The wind can also play a role, so it is a good idea to use a longer club than is usual for the distance. The large green has one step. A par is always a good result!

Hole 5

Hole Name

From The Tee Once you have reached this cable car, you should take your time to admire the beautiful view. The tee shot should not be placed too far to the right, as the forest limits the course here.

From The Fairway Dense and high rough lurks on the left. If your tee shot is heading towards the tee box on hole 6, please don't forget to shout loudly.

On The Green To the right of the small hill there is a fairway bunker. Therefore, align yourself a little to the right. Hitting the green is made more difficult by the downhill location. Most players try to hit the front of the green to avoid treacherous downhill putts.

Hole 6

Hole Name

From The Tee Straight par 4. Two good shots and you're on the green. Dense rough lurks left and right.

From The Fairway There is also a fairway bunker at around 150m on the right. The large green is defended by two bunkers on the right.

On The Green

Hole 7

Hole Name

From The Tee Water comes into play for the first time on this course, exactly where the landing zone for driver shots is normally located. A long iron or the three-wood is the safer alternative for good players.

From The Fairway On the left and right there is dense rough waiting for distorted shots. When hitting the green, the position of the flag should be taken into account.

On The Green The green is treacherous and difficult to read and therefore three-putts are not uncommon.

Hole 8

Hole Name

From The Tee Long par 3 that is more difficult than the paper says. It's better to take one more club, the course plays longer than the distance stated.

From The Fairway

On The Green The green is defended by two bunkers on the left and right. It slopes down a little from top to bottom.

Hole 9

Hole Name

From The Tee

From The Fairway Difficult par 4. The second hole where you have to pay attention to a water hazard. Your tee shot should be long enough to reach the green with your second shot.

On The Green Otherwise, submitting it isn't a bad idea. Even if you get over the water with your second shot, the path to the green is peppered with several bunkers. The green extends over one step. Difficult putts are not uncommon here.

Hole 10

Hole Name

From The Tee

From The Fairway The second 9 start very moderately. If the wide fairway is hit, the two greenside bunkers hardly come into play. You can play good birdies on the green that slopes forward.

On The Green

Hole 11

Hole Name

From The Tee Now it gets interesting, 3 difficult holes in a row. A difficult par 3 after a strenuous climb. A long iron or 3-wood will send the ball onto the stepped green if it is not blown away by the wind.

From The Fairway

On The Green If you hit the green, pars are good, but if you miss, you're left with a very heavy pitch or chip on the undulating green.

Hole 12

Hole Name

From The Tee A fairly short par 5 with a wide landing zone. But be careful: a fairway bunker and deep rough on both sides are just waiting for failure. The second shot - with a good length from the tee - must be played blindly over a never-ending climb. Bunkers come into play again.

From The Fairway A middle iron remains up to the green, which should be played precisely due to the prevailing winds, as the green is defended by bunkers.

On The Green There are some difficult flag positions that should not be played directly. Once you have overcome the 50 meters in altitude, you can enjoy the wonderful view for a short time.

Hole 13

Hole Name

From The Tee A fairly short par 4, it plays downhill. But be careful: there is an exclusion zone and deep rough lurking on the right side.

From The Fairway Take a long iron or a 3-wood, position yourself slightly to the left of the fairway bunker and let the ball run into the dogleg to the right. But the green is not yet safely hit from the fairway either: bunkers on both sides and steep mountain slopes around the green make it a narrow target that is still protected by a wave.

On The Green Long hitters can attack the green from the tee, but even the slightest mistake is punished by the ball disappearing into the depths of the out-of-bounds, untraceable. Many a round has been done on this hole, both for better and for worse.

Hole 14

Hole Name

From The Tee Long hitters can take a shortcut to the right via the dogleg, then there is still 50 to 180 m to the green and the prospect of a birdie or eagle.

From The Fairway But be careful: distorted shots, shots that are too short or too long will be punished with deep rough. If you want to play conservatively, hit the dogleg with a three-wood or a driver, lay in front of the water and have a short pitch onto the green.

On The Green The green is defended by 2 water hazards and a deep bunker, so it should not be attacked from too far away.

Hole 15

Hole Name

From The Tee The beginning of a difficult final spurt at the Escheberg Golf Club. The tee landing zone is defended by deep rough, a bunker and water on the right side.

From The Fairway

On The Green The green has a wave, behind it is out, and to the right is water. A visually very beautiful hole that has driven many a golfer to despair.

Hole 16

Hole Name

From The Tee Very long and difficult par 4, also uphill! The drive zone seems incredibly narrow, long players can try to shorten via the dogleg, but the position on the fairway never seems to be straight.

From The Fairway Furthermore, no matter how you play your drive, bunkers are waiting for warped balls. The shot into the green is usually played with a headwind and often forces even good players to take another 3-wood.

On The Green The huge green is protected by high rough on the left side, as well as a bunker and an enormous wave in the middle. A par on 16 is worth as much as a birdie on any other hole.

Hole 17

Hole Name

From The Tee I can't miss the green, some inexperienced players thought. But the wind carries every ball to the side, so precision off the tee is required.

From The Fairway The choice of club varies from PW to three-wood. In addition to the beautiful shot into the valley, you can also enjoy the view from the elevated tee.

On The Green The green has several undulations that make some approaches and putts seemingly impossible.

Hole 18

Hole Name

From The Tee The last hole shows all the difficulties of the course: bunkers in the drive landing zone, out of bounds on the right, rough on the left and right, water 80 m in front of the green.

From The Fairway If you hit the fariway, you don't have too long of a shot into the green, but several bunkers in front of the green and out behind it increase the adrenaline level even more.
