 Germany is set deep in the heart of Europe and it has left its indelible historical mark. Synonymous with reliable cars, Liebfraumilch, Black Forest gateaux, poolside beach towels and the rise and fall of the Berlin Wall. With exciting and vibrant cities such as Cologne and Munich, Germany has plenty to offer… and the German landscape is pretty impressive too with the Bavaria Alps and fairytale castles perched up high.
According to the German Golf Federation, there are now more than 650 golf courses in the country serving approximately half a million affiliated golfers. Golf is growing fast in Germany and it’s very hard for us to keep up but we’re confident that you can get a game on most German courses even though the majority are private clubs. | |
