One of Phuket's Top Golf Courses with Beautiful Scenery and Great Golf
Red Mountain Golf Course is considered one of the most beautiful and exciting golf courses in Phuket. It is the sister course of Loch Palm Golf Club, and won the "Platinum Golf Course Of The Year" award at the 2011 Hospitality Asia Platinum Awards (HAPA) in Singapore, and was also rated as a top three new course in 2007. Beautifully and strategically designed by Jon Morrow and AI Tikkanen, this 6,900 yard, par 72, 18 hole golf course will take you through a variety of spectacular land forms and dramatic elevation changes as it winds its way through the former tin mine site and a unique part of Phuket's history.
This beautiful, challenging, and strategic course creates many risk and reward situations based on its unique design with fast greens, water, and tree's all contributing to create a fun and rewarding golf experience for golfers of all skill levels.
Winding its way through a truly dramatic 1400 rai former tin mine site in the heart of Phuket, Red Mountain is surely one of Asia's most exciting new courses. The course has been cleverly routed to take advantage of a huge variety of landforms and dizzying elevation changes. Scars left from the tin mine era have been imaginatively incorporated into the overall scheme, creating a unique character at the same time as establishing an indelible link with an important era in the Island's past.
The course provides refreshment stands every 3 holes on the course and the Club House has both air-conditioned and open Terrace restaurants serving up a variety of quality food with great service.
Located approximately 7 km's from Phuket Town and about 15 minutes from Patong Beach, Red Mountain Golf Course is comparable to some of the best in the world and we highly recommend this course during your visit here in Phuket.
Designer Jon Morrow and co-designer Al Tikkanen, have created a highly strategic and challenging 6,900 yard lay out to complement the shorter and gentler old Loch Palm Course. While the course is undoubtedly challenging, numerous risk and reward options create a fun playing environment, an exhilarating test of golf and a breathtaking scenic tour around a course destined to become a golfing landmark in the region.
