Andermatt, Golf course in Hospental, Switzerland
Andermatt Golf Course is an 18-hole course situated on alpine terrain in the Swiss Alps. The layout incorporates the natural mountain landscape, using elevation changes, open areas, and surrounding peaks as features of the design.
The course was established to expand recreational options in the Uri region, which had traditionally focused on winter sports. Its creation marked a shift in how the valley offered activities beyond the snowy season.
The course brings together golfers from the surrounding region and beyond who gather to play and socialize on the grounds. It serves as a meeting place where people share their passion for the sport against an alpine backdrop.
The course is open daily and offers equipment rental and instruction on the grounds. Visitors should prepare for changing mountain weather and bring appropriate clothing for the altitude.
The course sits at high elevation in the Alps, where thinner air affects how the ball travels through the air. Golfers must adjust their shots differently than on courses at lower altitudes, making each round a unique physical challenge.
