Tournament Course

This picturesque course is located in the Heckengäu rural area at the edge of the Black Forest. Although not too long and with generous fairways in most places, over-ambitious golfers can face certain disaster if they stray too far off line as the trees and bushes are often situated close to the fairways edge..!
