Riverside Golf Club Description:
(challenging Greg Norman jungle course)

Riverside Golf Club is a challenging 18-hole par 72 course set along the Cikeas River and 30 kilometers from central Jakarta.  The first Greg Norman-designed course in Indonesia opened in 1994. Course routing makes use of the original hardwood rain forested jungle and offers players a real test of golf. 

Ninety hectares of the jungle with the dramatic topography was used to create Riverside Golf Club. Fairways are generally rolling with areas of open spaces for landing. Many of the holes though play over ravines and cross rivers and streams. Most greens protected by large stands of trees and lush forest.

Riverside Golf Club favors very long hitters. Three of the four par-3 holes require a long carry across the water with little room for error. Many of the par-4 and par-5 holes play to blind greens that are neither visible from the tee or the fairway. Moreover, several of the holes are long doglegs where even bogeys are good scores.

A few of the most interesting Riverside golf holes include the fifth.  This downhill par-4 requires an accurate approach shot to land safely on a green surrounded by water. The par-5 seventh is a double dogleg through the jungle that needs two consecutive well-placed shots to have any change to view the green on the third. The signature fourteenth is an excellent par-3 that is all carry over a huge ravine.

The clubhouse although looking a little old is well placed and overlooks the eighteenth green. The open-air restaurant is pleasant enough being surrounded by mature hardwood trees. Facilities are adequate to meet most golfers’ needs and include a pro shop, locker rooms, and grass driving range. The practice green and chipping areas, however, need repair and probably better left unused.

Riverside Golf Club outside Jakarta is an excellent example of a challenging Norman design and will be enjoyed most by top-ranked golfers looking to challenge their game.

    • We have just arrived back home after playing at Hua Hin in the Centara Masters followed by another week in Bangkok playing several courses. A big Thank You to the Golfasian team for the great organization and the service prided to us to make our stay one to remember and talk about for a long time. We thoroughly enjoyed the courses played in Bangkok, particularly Royal Gems. Everything about the Trip was Outstanding including our Hotel (Centara Grand in Bangkok). A big thank you to Brian for the course selections and putting everything together for us. We look forward to having Golfasian organize more trips for us, Cheers.

    • The service from start to finish was excellent (late changes to room requirements, number of players etc not a problem). Effective communication was maintained from start to finish. A very fair price for the services provided (I make a lot of trips to Thailand for golf so I know the general costs of hotels, transport, golf if you book directly). I like to use a service provider for larger groups to avoid all the administrative hassle and this is the second time I have used Golf Asian - it will certainly not be the last time. They take all the pressure off the planners/organizers, which meant we could all relax and enjoy the holiday. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

    • We have golf trips in Thailand for many years by ourselves and recently appointed Golf Asian to organise golf trips to Chiang Mei, Hua Hin and Bangkok. We have 8 to 20 golfers on these trips and everyone enjoyed the professional tour arrangement by GA from hotel, transport and golf courses. We appreciate their commitments to customers and will recommend this golf agent to anyone who may wish to play golf with fun in Asia. Thanks for the good services.
