Bandung Golf Holiday Package

Peter Thomson and Ross Perrett designed Mountain View Golf Club, located in a prestigious residential complex 30 minutes from the Bandung airport or 20 minutes from the city center.

Parahyangan Golf Bandung designed by Bob Moore - lead designer of USA-based JMP Golf Design Group sets up in a dramatic valley-to-mountain landscape. The Bandung golf course located beyond Kota Baru town and is a component of Kota Baru Parayhangan, a carefully planned, mixed-use development spreading over an area of 1,250 hectares.

Parahyangan navigates through two distinctly different types of terrain and around some offshoot bays of the Saguling Lake. Seven bridges spanning from 20 – 70 meters in length to cross the bays, with holes framed in local farm crops.

Incomparable visual drama is one of the great strengths of this 18-hole championship layout. The course flows along the deeply incised ravines and lake edges and climbs onto the flanks of surrounding mountains offering commanding views of the valley floor. The course also features a highly-strategic layout featuring multiple lines of play on virtually every hole.

The front nine sets out from the valley into an awe-inspiring landscape that is dominated by steep hills and mountains, and that is home to ravines and thousands of years old deep gorges. Many holes offer stunning views, and particularly from the tee box of the downhill par-5 fifth.

The steep hills and mountains are home predominantly to local farmers who make a living from agriculture and vegetable farming. Seamlessly their workspaces integrate with golf situated in this part of the site.

The back nine routing is to an open plain that borders Lake Saguling. The main activity on the lake’s shores is vegetable farming and growing of rice. Parahyangan adds golf to the activity list.

Lake Saguling’s many tributaries and waterways have created a patchwork of typical landforms with shoreline-features that include plateaus, bays, gorges and streams, and small valleys. And it is here, that Bob Moore cleverly created a series of golf holes (twelve to sixteen) - that connect and integrate these unusual landforms and shoreline features, making room for golf holes, unique to Indonesia.

The 9,000 square meters spacious clubhouse has every modern facility that a golfer expects. From the plush locker rooms, clean changing areas, well-stocked pro shop, and to top-notch practice areas, the Parahyangan facilities are all first class. Caddies are well groomed and a welcome smiling addition to any round.

Whether it’s the front- or the back nine, every hole at Parahyangan offers a different vista that surely completes for attention with golf. Local advice is to take it one golf shot at a time. Parahyangan leaves an indelible impression with first-time visitors and seasoned golfers alike.

The Dago Heritage 1917 Golf Course is a traditional British style course with the greatest challenge provided by the natural terrain. Each hole is carefully positioned, with its unique characteristics. The quiet, peaceful surroundings and beautiful vistas of Bandung make it a very enjoyable course to play. 
                                   
In 1917, the club's current 18-hole layout started as a 9-hole course. It was built on 50 hectares in the foothills 8 kilometers north of Bandung and is one of the oldest golf courses in Indonesia. In 1994, Dago Heritage expanded to 18 holes. The new layout was designed by Japanese golf course architect Chohei Miyazawa, who made himself a name in East Asia with numerous golf courses.

Large differences in altitude on the course, which runs across 950 to 1,065 meters above sea level, are characteristic, ensures cooler temperatures, and make Dago heritage one of Indonesia's hilliest golf courses. Incredible vistas over the city of Bandung come into play on almost every hole. Dago Heritage enjoys a great mix of holes, and with just two par 5s the course has a par of 70.

The fairways are quite narrow and not very long. Shot making and course management are needed to score well at the Dago Heritage 1917 Golf Course. Fairways tend to be quite narrow and not very long. Long-hitter challenges are few and far between on the par 70, but all golfers get beautiful views and a great mountain pine tree atmosphere. The front nine extends into the valley with most of the tees above the greens. The back nine holes play uphill, and the finishing hole plays to the clubhouse.

Off the golf course, there is a spacious practice area as well as a well-equipped pro shop. The new clubhouse is in an elevated location and offers a great view of the course and the city from its restaurant.

The Dago Heritage 1917 Golf Course offers golfers of all handicaps playing pleasure with ample challenges. Although short by modern day standards the location of the course creates a character like no other.
