Grand Prix Golf Club

A vast open space with panoramic views of Burmese mountain ranges in the distance sets the stage for this masterpiece. A large river bisects the course and adds to the natural scenery. It takes around 30 minutes to reach the site from Kanchanaburi town or 2 hours from Bangkok.
Grand Prix makes excellent use of significant mounding and undulations through the fairways and greens. Many holes have split fairways offering golfers both a more challenging and a relaxing approach to the greens. Multi-tiered greens have lots of breaks, so it pays to select the correct club for each approach shot; otherwise, 3-putts or worse is likely.
The signature hole is the par-5 fifth. At 557 yards, this is the longest hole on the golf course. It is designed to follow the natural landscape and plays to a large elevated green protected by water on three sides. Three perfect shots played back-to-back still doesn’t guarantee par.
Facilities include a modern clubhouse and a top-class golf resort. Grand Prix Golf Club is one of the best golf courses in Thailand and is a must-play for all golfing in Kanchanaburi.
