| Description |
Sheltered from the South-Easterly wind, the course offers
tree-lined fairways, well situated bunkers and numerous water
hazards. This together with the large and well undulated greens,
offers a good test of skill for all levels of players.
The charm of the original Ken Elkin design has
not been lost as the Berg River and the Du Toits Kloof
mountains remain wonderful natural features that serve to
enhance the 27-hole challenge with scenic backdrops.
Every year, this club hosts the Winelands Classic, one of
the top amateur events in the country.
