Hole MAP
Hole 1
Hole Name
From The Tee A fairly gentle par 4. Aim your drive just right of the bunkers on the left.
From The Fairway A water hazard is in play on the right which is full during the wet season.
On The Green
Hole 2
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway This short par 4 is visually intimidating, with a narrow fairway and the Berg River on the right, which anxiously awaits a fade from the tee.
On The Green A tall pine tree and bunker guards the left of the fairway. A wise decision will be to hit an accurate iron off the tee.
Hole 3
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway A very tight driving hole with trees lining the fairway. The hole doglegs slightly to the right, you would like to favour the left-hand side of the fairway which will give you a better approach to this green.
On The Green
Hole 4
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway
On The Green A very picturesque but gentle par 3. Be aware of the pine tree in front of the tee box and the hazards on the left and another right of the green.
Hole 5
Hole Name
From The Tee This par 4 will be testy with the wind blowing. The landing area for your drive is wider than it looks.
From The Fairway
On The Green When you reach the fairway take a moment to savour the tranquillity of the Berg River meandering so close to the fairway, there are no greenside bunkers, but an accurate approach is required to this narrow elongated green.
Hole 6
Hole Name
From The Tee A narrow driving hole. A good drive will however be rewarded with the possibility to reach the green in two.
From The Fairway The front entrance to the green is very narrow protected by two greenside bunkers. This makes running the ball up the green fairly risky.
On The Green The back portion of this very long green is unsighted from the fairway and falls away at the back requiring accurate judgement with a back pin placement.
Hole 7
Hole Name
From The Tee The green is wide left – right but very narrow front to back and will test your skill in stopping the ball with a long iron.
From The Fairway
On The Green When the pin placement is back right, the smart shot is to play for the middle of the green left but beware the bunker which will punish you if you take too little club.
Hole 8
Hole Name
From The Tee Make sure to check the pin position on the green before you tee off and plan your drive accordingly.
From The Fairway An iron off the tee to the right-hand side of the fairway will always be the smart play.
On The Green The green lies diagonally to the left and is quite narrow. A deep greenside bunker guards the front of the green.
Hole 9
Hole Name
From The Tee A tree lined par 5 has ample space for your drive. A good drive will put you in a position to reach the green in two. It will however take some guts as the green is well guarded by a creek and water on the right.
From The Fairway The smart play is to lay up as close to the creek as possible and then attack the pin with a lofted club.
On The Green
Hole 10
Hole Name
From The Tee A tough par 4 under any circumstances. Aim well left as the landing area is much larger than is perceived.
From The Fairway
On The Green If your drive is short, it will take a brave shot over the water to get on the green safely.
Hole 11
Hole Name
From The Tee This par 3 is well guarded by deep greenside bunkers.
From The Fairway Pin placement in the front can be quite tricky, as the green falls away sharply to the front left and most balls short of the green will gather there.
On The Green The safe shot is to the back of this green where it opens up considerably.
Hole 12
Hole Name
From The Tee This par 4 is much tougher than it looks. The hole plays long especially with a south-easterly wind blowing.
From The Fairway The fairway is guarded by fairway bunkers left and an obscured water hazard will catch long drives straying to the right.
On The Green The green slopes significantly from back to front and is guarded by bunkers all around and water on the right. With a front pin placement, you definitely want to be below the hole for an uphill putt.
Hole 13
Hole Name
From The Tee After your walk up the hill take some time to enjoy the splendour of the surrounding mountains while you catch your breath.
From The Fairway In front of you lies a very scenic par5 that doglegs down the hill to the right, with water on either side of the fairway. The smart play is to hit your second shot short of the fairway bunker.
On The Green This will take out all the trouble. The green is very wide but not very deep and you will be rewarded for it if your distance is correct.
Hole 14
Hole Name
From The Tee A very demanding par 3 that will cost you shots in a blink of an eye. The green is elevated and well bunkered whilst water and out of bounds also comes into play.
From The Fairway
On The Green Missing this green on either side will see you struggle to make par. The safe option on this hole is always to the middle of the green. Par on this hole is a good score.
Hole 15
Hole Name
From The Tee Another testy par 4 that plays short in summer, but long in winter. The views are breath taking and on a clear day you can see Table Mountain.
From The Fairway Your drive is to a blind plateau with out of bounds in play on the right.
On The Green The elevated green is difficult to hold especially in summer with the wind from behind.
Hole 16
Hole Name
From The Tee Known as the best hole on the course it is a real test of skill for any golfer.
From The Fairway The fairway is lined with pine trees on both sides with a creek that cuts across the fairway about 80m in front of the green.
On The Green The elevated tee box gives a beautiful view of what lies ahead. There are no bunkers around the green, but the green itself makes up in difficulty.
Hole 17
Hole Name
From The Tee A very scenic short par 4. Driver is definitely not the club on this hole.
From The Fairway Your tee shot is from an elevated tee with water in play all along the left side of the fairway and rough to the right.
On The Green The green is well surrounded with water, and anything missed left or long will almost certainly be wet. A very undulating green makes chipping and putting a challenge.
Hole 18
Hole Name
From The Tee A very scenic and interesting hole. The hole doglegs to the left with water in play all along the left-hand side.
From The Fairway Fairway bunkers on the right catches the long drive that strays to the right.
On The Green A relatively short par 5 that requires accuracy and skill and you might be rewarded with a birdie.
