Chiang Mai Highlands Golf & Spa

Chiang Mai Highlands Golf & Spa

The Chiang Mai Highlands Golf Club opened in 2005 and significantly greatly improved the quality of the Chiang Mai golf courses. The drive from Chiang Mai to the Highlands leads through the beautiful landscapes, passing rice fields and farmlands into the mountains in an easterly direction.

The Championship Layout Golf Course is developed on the ‘power spot’-the hermitage of Kuba Sivichai (the admired monk who founded the famous Doi Suthep Temple). This site is dazzling in every direction. Its tranquility, high altitude, cooler climate, fresh air, pure water, and rich soil make it an ideal place for the 27-hole layout.

Voted as one of the best value golf courses in the region this course comes highly recommended by golfers all abilities.

Lee Schmidt of Schmidt-Curley Design from the USA and the same designer as Mission Hills, Amata Spring and Siam CC were the masterminds of the course. Already after two years of operation, Chiangmai Highlands has catapulted into the international golf scene as among the best golfing experiences in Asia. Since then, This wonderful resort has won a number of numerous awards. In 2007, This amazing powerhouse of a resort was voted #3 ‘Best New Golf Course in Asia’ by Asian Golf Monthly. In 2013, the same publication awarded Chiang Mai Highlands the ‘Best Value for Money Golf Course in Asia’ and the ‘Best Golf Resort in Asia’ followed in 2015.

A Thai-style clubhouse with a casual environment and all amenities provide enjoyment before or after the golf round. Dressing rooms are basic, but they are still adequate. The Resort has a superbly maintained practise facility, along with several practise greens, a short play area and a 300-yard grass tee driving range. There is a small on-site Thai resort with private villas for those who want to stay in the countryside and play multiple rounds at the Chiang Mai Highlands.
