Sir James Country Club Khao Yai Korat

Adjacent to Khao Yai National Park, this course unfolds on hilly land surrounded by deep green trees. It was built with the image of a British parkland course. In 2007, 9 holes were added, making it 27 holes, but the new 9 holes were unpopular, so in recent years it has reverted to the original 18 holes. Cypresses, palm trees, and other trees line both sides of each hole, and ponds and creeks come into play on 10 of the 18 holes. In addition to ups and downs, there are many dogleg holes, strategically placed water hazards and bunkers, and the distance is over 7,100 yards, so it can be said to be a tough course. You can enjoy a panoramic view while playing. The course is decorated with abundant plants and flowers. Both the green and FW are well maintained. The course is named after the owner's father, and its former name was Royal Hills GC.
