Set in the southern foothills of Khao Yai, this scenic resort course is beautifully laid out over hills, streams, waterfalls and a profusion of trees, many of which are original.
The course has always been a good test of golf and it seems to get better as the years go by, with every hole presenting a slightly different challenge and, with one or two generous par 5’s and short 3’s, it’s also a lot of fun.

The 2nd 513 yards par 5 is short but delightfully tricky. A blind drive up a hill with a deep ravine and bunker left to catch the wayward hook, the second shot has to clear a small stream which should be simple enough, but the fairway narrows beyond it, so placement is crucial. Bunkers on both sides guard a nasty little green and even if you miss it, and the bunkers, the chip will not be easy as the ground to the right is often a bit bare, so don’t expect a good lie. The green itself is tricky, with lots of borrow, depending on the pin position. |

The 18th 389 yards par 4 is a dog-leg right with a large lake right, and a bunker ahead just where the fairway narrows to catch the bigger hitters! It’s possible to flirt with the sand from the white tees and probably safe from the blues, so a driver should be okay. The approach demands an accurate iron, as water lurks right of the green and three well-placed bunkers guard the left; not nice to be in, as anything thinned out will probably go for a swim. A good shot is facing the green sloping away from you with plenty of borrow. |
