Jade Dragon Snow Mountain Golf Club

18 holes par 72 (8,548 yards)
by Neil Haworth
since 2001

Nestled in a picturesque valley at the base of the majestic Jade Dragon Snow Mountain in Lijiang, China, Jade Dragon Snow Mountain Golf Club offers an unparalleled golfing experience. Designed by Neil Haworth, this 18-hole, par-72 course stretches an impressive 8,548 yards from the pro tees, earning it the title of the longest regulation par-72 golf course globally.

Situated at an elevation of approximately 3,100 meters (10,170 feet) above sea level, the high altitude causes golf balls to travel about 15-20% farther than at lower elevations, effectively reducing the course's playing length to a more traditional distance.

The course layout is thoughtfully divided:

Front Nine: Characterized by a Scottish links-style design, offering open fairways with strategic bunkering.
Back Nine: Features a mountainous terrain, presenting elevation changes and challenging doglegs that require precise shot-making.

Golfers are treated to stunning views of the snow-capped Jade Dragon Snow Mountain from nearly every hole, enhancing the overall experience. The course's unique combination of length, altitude, and natural beauty makes it a must-play destination for golf enthusiasts seeking a distinctive challenge.

With its record-breaking length, high-altitude setting, and breathtaking mountain vistas, Jade Dragon Snow Mountain Golf Club provides a unique and memorable golfing adventure for players from around the world.
