Ba Na Hills Golf Club to Open on April 1st: Experience Vietnam’s most challenging golf course

19 January 2016

Vietnam’s most anticipated golf course, Ba Na Hills Golf Club managed by IMG is located at the foothills of the famed Ba Na Hills, only 25 minutes from Da Nang City, Vietnam.

Slated to officially open all 18 holes on the 1st April 2016, the challenging, Par 72, 7850 yard layout from the Professional tees, the inaugural Luke Donald-designed masterpiece is destined to become one of the finest in Asia.

Set amongst one of the most impressive mountain ranges in the region, the Championship golf course provides a balance of challenge, enjoyment and excitement to golfers of all levels and abilities. The front 9 is somewhat more traditional forest/parkland in style, while the back winds its way through the twists and turns of the surrounding hillside.

The culturally designed Vietnamese coin-shaped Clubhouse with luxurious facilities and amenities overlooks the 18th hole and is the perfect place to relax and unwind after enjoying a day on the course.

Unique and Challenging: Ba Na Hills Golf Club is Luke Donald's first design project, designing generous fairways with bold and demanding bunkering with subtle undulations that require a variety of strategic approach shots. The varying lies provided by the rolling contours of the land, as well as significant elevation changes will ensure that you get to use every shot in your arsenal and probably a few that you had not thought of before.

Surrounding water and topography have been, especially, integrated to create a unique and distinctive golf experience.

“I am delighted with the progress that has been made on the golf course at Ba Na Hills, scheduled to open all 18 holes on the 1st April. The course is turning out to be a truly outstanding collection of golf holes that should prove to be a wonderful and memorable golf experience. I am particularly grateful for the opportunity to be able to add an important new course to the emerging golf destination in the vibrant Da Nang area.

"While the earlier courses in the area are mostly along the sandy dunes near the coast, Ba Na Hills will be a very different course in a very different “parkland” mountain setting. The large rolling hills, stunning mountain backdrop, and the adjacent river will provide golfers with a beautiful alternative golf experience that is the ideal complement to the existing courses in the area. This will certainly solidify Da Nang’s reputation as one of the best new golf destinations in Asia.” – Stated Luke Donald.
