Phuket Golf Course
Best Kept Secret In Phuket, Red Mountain Golf Course
Red Mountain is one of the newest 18 hole
golf courses in South East Asia, this par 72 course designed by
golfing architect Johnathan Morrow measures some 6781 yards and
was opened in 2007.
Mix Golf And Pleasure In Phuket's Red
Mountain Golf Course
Located in the Red Mountains, just outside
Phuket you only have a short journey to reach this exciting
course. They have a state of the art clubhouse, fitted out in
an exciting modern style offering pro-shop, spacious locker
rooms and a terrace restaurant over looking the
course.

When Jonathan Morrow designed the Red
Mountain course he made excellent use of the old disused tin
mine around which this course is built. This gives the course a
curious and enchanting feel to it, rapid changes in elevation
and strangely shaped rock formations all reminders of the
courses industrial past.

Despite being a very young course it does
have an old feel to it. Existing trees have been incorporated
into the landscape and with views of the mountains and Phuket
below you know you are playing in a magical
environment.
You will be playing through narrow gorges,
dripping with foliage, carefully managed water channels and
lakes and around sheer cliff faces. Located on one of the
islands high points panoramic views of the surrounding
landscape are present from any vantage point.

The fairways are grassed with Paspalum, while
Bermuda grass is used greens. Red Mountain has a broad mix of
large flat forgiving greens and small irregular ones, although
care is required on all as they do tend to run
fast.
The short par 3 at the ninth is the courses
signature hole. What makes this hole difficult is the 150 foot
drop from the tee into a wooded glade which requires accuracy
and restraint to avoid a walk in the woods looking for your
ball.
Golfers playing Red Mountain traditionally
stay in Phuket; where you can see the many splendid restaurants
and exciting Thai night life on offer.
