チェンマイ ハイランド ゴルフ & スパ リゾート

Chiangmai Highlands Golf & Spa Resort Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai

A hilly course. The outer course is relatively flat, but the inner course is located on undulating hills and is designed to take advantage of the canyon and surrounding mountain scenery. Many holes have water hazards on the left, so this course is not suitable for those who hit draw balls, but is more suitable for those who hit fade balls.

Course Introduction

A slight downhill shot. The tee shot is over a pond, and the long, narrow green faces a pond on the left and a bunker on the right, so an accurate shot is required.

A dogleg to the left. There is a pond on the left from the tee to the green, and two large bunkers are placed on the right fairway 230 yards from the tee. Three bunkers in a row on the right side of the fairway come into play on the second shot, and one large bunker in front of the green comes into play on the approach shot. This is an interesting hole that makes skillful use of water and bunkers.
