The top 5 golf courses in the area

Of course, there are also plenty of highlights for golfers beyond our own golf course. In addition to our favorites in the neighborhood, we also recommend the GC Mondsee, where a fairytale setting and bathing jetty await you at the 19th hole. A great reason to pay a visit to the Salzburg Lake District.

Golf fun for children

You might think that golf is too boring for little rascals. We’ll be happy to prove you wrong. Children can have a lot of fun and make a quantum leap forward in their body control. They also learn to concentrate and stay calm under pressure. Boomer virtues such as patience and discipline come on top, which are not so bad for life. So: take them for a walk around the course. It doesn’t cost anything. And if they bite: Coach Rodney is ready with child-friendly training.
