Description
Those who connect relaxation with golf clubs,
balls and wide greens, can come to Slovenia and
enjoy not only the golf clubs, golf courses and
practice areas, but also diverse landscapes of the
charming green plains.
There are eight golf courses in Slovenia, from the
panonian north-east to the karst south-west, from
the meadows under the Julian Alps to the hills by
the Sava River.
Besides their tidiness, their favourable points are
also accessibility, openness and different
possibilities of golf learning – for individual
enthusiasts who want to improve their knowledge and
also for beginners, children, and families…
The
Bled golf course has the longest tradition in
Slovenia; it was visited by players before WWII. In
1976 there was also the first golf tournament in
Slovenia.
A decade ago the new Lake Course with water hazards
was added to the King’s Course overlooking the
alpine peaks. Other golf courses are available to
golfers besides the courses at Bled, such as
Lipica,
the cradle of white Lipizzaner horses which is also
a starting point for exploring the Karst, in
Arboretum Volčji Potok, with its attractive ancient
park, in
Mokrice sheltered by the picturesque castle
and near the Terme Čatež, in
Moravske Toplice
in the
picturesque Panonian landscape with thermal waters,
in
Ptuj, which attracts visitors with the tradition
of the oldest Slovenian town, in
Slovenske Konjice
where the course is sheltered by vine growing hills,
and Podčetrtek near the Olimja Health Resort.
