Golf du Rhin, Golf course in Chalampé, France.
Golf du Rhin is a course set on an island between the Rhine River and the Grand Canal d'Alsace, with narrow fairways bordered by mature trees. The layout spreads across this protected setting, combining water hazards and wooded obstacles throughout the routing.
The course opened in 1969 following a design by British architect Donald Harradine. It underwent significant redesigns in subsequent decades, evolving to meet changing player preferences.
The course brings together golfers from the three neighboring countries, creating a gathering place where French, German, and Swiss players meet. This reflects the cross-border character typical of the region.
The course sits within a protected natural area, so visitors should respect the environment while playing. Weekdays tend to be busier than weekends for this facility.
From several holes, golfers can see both the Black Forest and the Vosges mountains framing the play. These views across two mountain ranges add an unexpected dimension to the round.
