OPTION 1
GOLF – Cost R275 per person including golf cart
sharing
Put your skills to the test on our 18-hole championship golf
course, designed by H ugh Baiocchi to provide an exciting
challenge whatever your handicap.
Set against the magnificent backdrop of Champagne and
Cathkin Peaks, this course offers the golfer not only a superb
challenge of golf on a perfectly manicured layout but also a
scenic experience that is reward enough.
THE GREENS:
All the Greens are of the highest quality and are planted
with L93 bent-grass which have proven extremely suitable
for the region, particularly in winter where the greens remain
‘green’, receptive and true to line.
THE BUNKERS:
The 84 well appointed and well shaped bunkers that line
fairways and greens all have white silica sand imported from
Bronkhorstspruit and will be appreciated by professional
and novice alike for their consistency.
THE FAIRWAYS:
The fairways are all planted with kikuyu grass presenting
a wonderful green carpet, further enhancing the beauty of
this truly unique South African Golf Course.
THE ROUGH:
Whilst badly misdirected shots will be punished, particularly
in the wetlands and at the water holes, fairways are wide,
bordered by light rough.
No Golf clubhouse would be complete without a 19th-Hole,
and the 19th at Champagne Golf Course, as with the other
areas of the clubhouse, offers superb views. The large, fully
stocked pub offers golfers the perfect spot to compare notes
on their experiences on this magnificent golf course, and on
a winter evening the large fireplace adds a warm glow to
the cosy atmosphere
OPTION 2
MONKS COWL GUIDED WALK – Cost R100 per
person
For the non-golfers, we can offer a traditional Drakensberg

towering mountains of Champagne Castle and Cathedral
Peak, is part of 260,000 ha Ukhahlamba Drakensberg Park
and is the access point for the M lambonja and M dedelo
wilderness areas . It is known for its wonderful scenery and
provides hikers with wonderful routes that weave through the
deep valleys and forests of the N orthern Drakensberg and up
onto the main escarpment. The routes vary from a few hours
to several days and provide opportunities for young and old,
the fit and not so fit, to visit places with evocative names like
the Sphinx and Blindman’s Corner.”
