Gassan Khuntan Golf Resort
Challenge and Beauty Await at Gassan Khuntan Golf & Resort
Detailed Description
Gassan Khuntan Golf & Resort, located an hour outside of Chiang Mai, offers a unique blend of challenging golf and breathtaking natural beauty. Nestled in the Doi Khuntan Mountains, the course has recently undergone renovations, ensuring excellent playing conditions. The surrounding scenery, featuring picturesque waterfalls and the iconic railway bridge, adds to the allure of this exceptional golf destination.
The course features a full 18 holes, with an additional 9-hole course that opened in 2018. The main course is par-72, while the newer 9-hole course is par-34. The course is not for the faint-hearted, with challenges that can test even professional golfers. The additional 9-hole course, which plays through the State Railway of Thailand train tracks, offers its own set of challenges and stunning views. This shorter course features a signature 440-yard fifth hole, showcasing the best of the course design and surrounding scenery.
The course is designed to test even the most seasoned golfers, with blind tee shots, sharp doglegs, island greens, and numerous strategically placed bunkers. The renovation added steep-edged bunkers along the out-of-bounds lines to speed up play and keep wayward shots from ending up in the dense jungle. The natural beauty of the course, combined with its challenging layout, makes for a memorable golfing experience Bermuda grass fairways and ultra dwarf Bermuda greens ensure well-conditioned surfaces throughout the year..
Signature Holes
- Gassan Khuntan Golf & Resort is home to several signature holes that stand out for their beauty and challenge:
- Hole 5: This 160-yard par-3 features an island green surrounded by water and bunkers. Precision is key to landing on the green and avoiding a bogey or worse.
- Hole 9: The final hole on the front nine is a par-4 with water along the left and bunkers along the right. The approach to the elevated green is protected by additional bunkers, making it a potential scorecard-wrecker.
- Hole 17: Another standout, this par-4 requires an accurate drive and second shot to hit the narrow green and avoid water hazards.
The clubhouse at Gassan Khuntan Golf & Resort, while somewhat old-fashioned, offers spectacular views over the course. It includes a restaurant with excellent food, a pro shop, and basic locker rooms. The terrace provides a great spot to relax and take in the scenery after a round of golf.
Practice facilities at Gassan Khuntan include chipping and putting greens and a grass driving range. The on-site resort is more suited for locals, as most golfers prefer to return to Chiang Mai after their round.
