Marktgräflerland, South Germany D

Nice to play sustainable golf inbetween blossoms and cows

Since the beginning 1995 Golf Marktgräflerland aims to offer Golf on a very high level and to support a sustainble development of the course by respecting natural surroundings and to provide natural habitats and ecosystems for birds and other animals. Encounters with animals on the course are proving that the enviromental commitment works - we are looking forward to golf and animal challenges on the course.

In the midst of flowering meadows and orchards we encounter a well maintained, rather short but hilly course:  5931 m (white ),  5256 Metern (blue) Par 72  - with undulated fairways, challenging doglegs, big bunkers and ponds in play. The hilly Markgräfer landscape takes its toll with elevated unapologetic greens, straight downhill shuts and demands walking some differences in altitude... - carts are avaible if needed.

AMAZE!

The start is typically for the course: Loch 1, Par 4 with around 400 meter to play and an elevated, partially hidden Green with several bunkers around. Play straigt to avoid Out on the right, and on the left with some bushes and big trees covering the sight to the green. On the left a little brook catches the ball, but the alarmed wagtails Bächlein help to find the ball...
 

Loch 4, Par 5,
In the midst of the hilly flowering meadows a Dogleg to the left demands tactical play: a clever placed Drive rolls100m downhill...
Avoid the the big power pole in the middle  of the fairway, it blocks a direct shot on the hidden Green. By chance you reach on the right the well manicured big bunkers or worse the water in the pond.
FUN Factor On each hole animal encounters are welcome: Just at the Teebox No 4 nice beef awaits us: looks like 'scottish'...
Or we hear a woodpecker knocking vididly.
HOW to PLAY
The well maintained course demands straight shots and solid tactical play forced by inclinations, the doglegs, hidden approaches and quick and ondulated greens.

SIGNATURE Hole

6, Par 5,  the most challening and scenic hole: water, trees and sand awaits you. Long but accurate shots are needed downhill to avoid the obstacles- the trees on the right in the little brook on the left of the dogleg. Finally you have to get to the narrow green near the pond, protected by water and big Bunker.

 Golfing Ability
