Lost
City Golf Course
Golfers are astounded by the breathtaking beauty of the
par-72 Lost City Golf Course. The rich green fairways
give a dramatic contrast to the bushveld backdrop and
the barren waste bunkers are a special feature of this
intriguing course.
The desert style design of the golf course has an exotic
allure all of its own and designer, Gary Player has
acknowledged it as one of his favourite courses.
The Lost City Golf Course is flexible: playing off
the forward tee a course length of 5 953 metres, extending
to 6 983 metres off the back tee. The course provides
spectacular views.
The most hazardous area of the Lost City Golf Course is
the 13th hole. Inhabiting the water hazard are 38 crocodiles,
some of them nearly two metres long. Golfers are discouraged
from retrieving their wayward balls from the croc infested
pool. The unusual water hazard is just one of the features
that make the Lost City Golf Course exciting and interesting
to play. No effort was spared to make the course a masterpiece.
Playing the back nine is like going on a golf safari.
It has often been noted that the game is more exciting
when played downhill and this is certainly the case
here. In addition to the previously mentioned 13th,
holes eleven, fourteen, fifteen and sixteen are all
played from elevated tees offering thrill, excitement
and challenge to the golfer. And some of the most spectacular
African views to be had on a golf course.
On the whole a round at Lost City is an experience which
one will not easily forget. But it doesn't end with the
golf.
