Grand Prix Golf Club invites you to experience a truly captivating golf journey nestled in Thailand's stunning Kanchanaburi Province. From the moment you arrive, you'll be struck by the breathtaking panoramic views of the distant Burmese mountain ranges, a majestic backdrop that enhances every swing. The course, a testament to thoughtful design, features a prominent river that gracefully bisects the landscape, adding a serene natural element to the game. You’ll also notice the unique automobile tie-in, with tasteful displays and banners acknowledging our valued auto company sponsors, creating a distinctive atmosphere. Just a scenic 30-minute drive from Kanchanaburi town or a couple of hours from Bangkok, Grand Prix Golf Club offers an accessible yet remarkably picturesque escape for golfers seeking an unforgettable day on the fairways.
Prepare yourself for a strategic and rewarding golfing experience at Grand Prix Golf Club, where significant mounding and undulating fairways demand thoughtful shot-making. The course designers have masterfully incorporated split fairways on many holes, presenting golfers with a choice between a more daring, risk-reward approach or a gentler, more strategic path to the greens. The greens themselves are multi-tiered and present considerable breaks, requiring careful consideration of your club selection for each approach shot. Forgetting this crucial step could easily lead to frustrating 3-putts or worse, so keen observation and a touch of foresight will be your best allies. This engaging design ensures that every round at Grand Prix Golf Club is a fresh and stimulating challenge for golfers of all skill levels.
No visit to Grand Prix Golf Club is complete without experiencing our signature par-5 fifth hole. Stretching an impressive 557 yards, it stands as the longest on the course and is a true test of a golfer's prowess. Designed to harmoniously follow the natural contours of the land, this magnificent hole culminates in a large, elevated green that is artfully protected by water on three sides. Even three perfectly executed shots in succession don't guarantee a par here, highlighting the hole's challenging yet rewarding nature. Beyond the exceptional golf, our modern clubhouse and top-class resort facilities ensure your comfort and enjoyment. We are confident that Grand Prix Golf Club, a gem among Thailand's finest courses, promises a truly memorable golfing adventure for everyone golfing in Kanchanaburi.
Royal Ratchaburi, a gem unveiled in 1994, offers an unparalleled golfing experience nestled within the breathtaking landscape of Kanchanaburi. This course masterfully blends natural beauty with strategic design, presenting golfers with a truly memorable round. The undulating terrain, characteristic of the region, provides stunning panoramic vistas of the distant Burmese mountain ranges, creating an aesthetically captivating backdrop for every shot. While the visual appeal is undeniable, do not underestimate the challenge; the hilly nature of the course ensures that each hole demands thoughtful consideration and precise execution. We believe this spectacular setting is precisely why discerning golfers choose to grace our fairways and test their skills against such magnificent scenery. It's a journey that promises both visual delight and a rewarding test of golf for all who visit.
Prepare to be impressed by the immaculate condition of our greens, consistently ranked among the finest in the Kanchanaburi area. At Royal Ratchaburi, the fairways artfully follow the natural contours of the hills, creating a dynamic playing experience that is largely up and down. The front nine offers a slightly more forgiving, wider fairway experience, while the back nine presents a more demanding challenge for those seeking to truly test their mettle. Be prepared for some exquisite yet short par-3 holes, where precision is paramount as you navigate shots over captivating deep canyons. These holes, in particular, are a testament to the thoughtful design that aims to provide a stimulating challenge for golfers of all skill levels, ensuring an engaging and rewarding game.
While our clubhouse, locker rooms, restaurant, and practice facilities are thoughtfully designed to be functional and comfortable, the true allure of Royal Ratchaburi lies beyond the amenities. We are proud to be considered a hidden gem by locals and a premier destination in the River Kwai area. For those journeying between Kanchanaburi and Hua Hin, Royal Ratchaburi stands as an excellent and convenient stopover for a superb round of golf. A friendly local tip: keep an eye out for our resident troops of monkeys, particularly on the opening holes, who occasionally take an interest in well-struck balls. Embrace the adventure and the unique charm that makes our course an unforgettable experience.
