The Golf Course
The Golf Course at Blue Valley Golf & Country Estate has been designed to make full use of the natural features of the site, while at the same time providing a memorable and challenging golfing experience.

Hazards in the form of bunkers and water features provide strategic and aesthetic value. The bunkers have steep grass faces and represent a more traditional style. The greens generally feature soft undulations, to provide a fair and interesting challenge. The landscaping theme on the golf course is indigenous, with typical Highveld trees species being used.

The 9th (445m, par 4) Bunkers to the right and to the left of the fairway, on this slightly right dogleg, focuses the golfers mind on the centre of the fairway. This hole plays downhill from tee to green. The green is elevated and features deep bunkers to the left and to the right and a steep slope behind he green.

And on the 10th (364m, par 4), again the golfer is faced with an exciting tee shot from an elevated tee to a fairway that is much lower than the tee. The green, which is a double green, shared with Hole #1 offers many pin positions because of its enormous size “the largest in Africa".
