Baden Hills Golf and Curling Club

Yesterday I flew back from the Airpark Baden-Baden to Berlin. The Airpark is a former Royal Canadian Air Force base that now serves as a commercial airport. As you can see by the picture above the reminders of the military past are still to be seen.

Adjacent to the start and landing strip the Baden Hills Golf and Curling Club is situated (Google Maps). Built in 1962 by the Royal Canadian Air Force, the course was taken over by the club after the withdrawal of the canadians. The course (see pics here) offers 18 holes and measures 6.053m from white.

I wasn’t able to squeeze in some holes before my departure, but the next time I will plan some extra hours for a quick round. Greenfee is reasonable, € 35,00 on weekdays and €45,00 on weekends.

    Letztes Jahr habe ich den Kurs bei brütender Hitze gespielt… Die Bahnen sind bis auf einige Ausnahmen relativ unspektakulär. Lediglich die Flughafennähe gibt dem Club einen gewissen Reiz. Das Rough fand ich damals enorm mysteriös. Teilweise sind mir Bälle vom Fairway hineingerollt, die ich nie wieder gefunden habe. Das dichte Gras hat alles verschluckt, was nur in die Nähe kam.

    Aus der Luft betrachtet sah er auch nicht besonders herausfordernd aus. Aber da ich gestern 2,5 Stunden auf meinen Abflug warten musste, hätte ich lieber auf dem Platz gestanden.

    Nachvollziehbar!!!

    I play the course regularly. It is admittedly quite flat but the holes are well modulated and greens well-defended. Water in play on some holes. 2 holes have just been revamped and add to the attraction of the course. Definitely enjoyable.

 

Say something!
