The gently undulating course without any significant inclines offers a breathtaking view of the Karawanken Mountains. Wide fairways and six harmoniously situated ponds increase the pleasure of the game.
Kings at Lake Bled - The championship course with 18 holes was re-designed in 1972 by the golf architect Donald Harradine. His masterful achievement successfully incorporates all its natural features. The fact that golfers have to use every club in their bag is testimony to the rich variety of playing surfaces and so it is no wonder that players return again and again. The appearance of the course, which is embraced by Slovenia's highest mountains, is reminiscent of a park. As golfers walk through the sunny woodlands they enjoy the fresh mountain air and marvelous views of the Julian Alps, the Karavanke range, Mount Jelovica and the Kamnik Alps in the distance. A special charm is exerted by the mighty Stol (2236 m), the highest peak of the Karavanke, which creates an indelible impression on visitors and suffuses them with energy.
