Golfclub Erzgebirge - Golfpark Gahlenz

Am Golfplatz 1, D-09569 Oederan/OT Gahlenz, Germany

Characteristics

The 18-hole golf course is situated within sight of the castle Augustusburg at the gates of Chemnitz in the borough Gahlenz. The slightly hilly terrain with a water course is varied and efficiently and beautifully uses the natural features of the landscape with four newly arranged pools. Over 2 000 copses, typical for the region, border the individual fairways. On some days, the wind conditions on the course are very changeful.

Surprisingly good

The Gahlenz golf course (I will be writing about the clubhouse course - holes 1-9) offers an attractive and well-maintained course that particularly appeals to golfers who are looking for a quiet and relaxed atmosphere. With its mountainous terrain, the course stands out from many other courses and encourages training sessions on particularly steep slopes.

Design and layout:
The golf course is beautifully integrated into the surrounding landscape and offers a variety of fairways. The hilly/mountainous nature of the course requires a good level of fitness and offers golfers the opportunity to improve their skills on slopes and challenging fairways. Hole number 7 is particularly beautiful, with an elevated tee over a valley with a water hazard.

Care and condition of the system:
The course is well maintained, which is reflected in the neat fairways and relatively neat greens. Even if the course is not comparable to the exclusive golf courses in big cities, attention is paid to the essential aspects of course maintenance so that golfers can enjoy a pleasant game.

Infrastructure and facilities:
The golf course's facilities are tailored to the needs of the players. A functional clubhouse offers visitors the necessary facilities. However, one should not expect state-of-the-art training equipment or extensive catering options, as one might find at municipal golf courses.

Audience and atmosphere:
One of the biggest advantages of the golf course in Gahlenz is that it is not very busy. This allows for a relaxed game without long waiting times and overcrowded courses. Beginners in particular will appreciate the friendly and unintimidating atmosphere, which has a positive effect on the playing experience. Beginners in particular can gain their first tournament experience here.

Price-performance ratio:
The prices for playing on the Gahlenz golf course are reasonable and attractive compared to the high-priced courses in the cities. This is a recommended course, especially for golfers who value good value for money and are prepared to forego unnecessary luxury.

Conclusion:
Overall, the Gahlenz golf course is a good choice for golfers who are looking for a quieter and more relaxed place to play and who value a natural and challenging environment. Even though the course does not offer the same facilities and comfort as urban golf courses, it is convincing due to its special location and the opportunity to play in peace and quiet.

It's a shame what has become of this golf course

It's a shame what has become of this once great place (the last time I played here was about 4 years ago).
I played there yesterday (9/17/23):
Fairways: OK, women's tees: Well, that's how it went, greens: not so great:
The bunkers were a hit: the weeds hung over the edge or were already growing into the bunker. What kind of rule applies when my ball rolls in there? The 18 was simply declared to be the 9, there were women's and men's tees on the same tee, even though the signage said there was a 40 m difference. If you then go over to the 2.9 hole, there are no longer any tees in the old places. How are you supposed to play a countable round? There's also football golf at the same time... Conclusion: you can play a 9-hole round, that's how it works... but the green fee of 70 euros on the weekend is a disgrace!

Hello Ms. Dreyer, my name is Rene Schmitt. I am the president. We spoke on the phone twice before your visit.
I specifically told you to play the first 9 holes twice because the second nine is being rebuilt. If you ignore that, I can't change it. Lane 18 has been lane 9 for years. We also have a rating from the DGV for this. Unfortunately, providers like Garmin have not yet implemented this. At the end of the day you played 2x9 holes for 60 euros. Because that's all you paid. Our bunkers on the greens are well maintained. The fairway bunkers you mentioned were marked blue because they will also be closed as part of the rating. Of course, the customer is also our queen and is always right. But with all due respect, her condescending manner was already getting on my nerves over the phone. Now you are spreading fake news. This is the crowning glory. By the way: we were already the operator 4 years ago.

Good luck!

Very sad

The first 9 holes are okay, but the back 9 are a disaster! Actually a football golf course, no clever T-Boxes, signs or similar. Bad! But the worst thing is that you send someone there at all. And 70.00 euros for a weekday is clearly too expensive for this "golf course".

Dear TigerWoods,

We usually advise our guests to play lanes 1 to 9 twice. The tracks 1 to 9 are good and fair to play for every handicap class, as shown by many handicap improvements in tournaments and increasing green fee income for years. Because only satisfied green fee golfers come back. Our green fee for 9 holes 1 to 9 is €35 on weekdays, which makes us cheaper than all the surrounding golf courses. For lanes 10 to 18 we only charge €25. In retrospect, I cannot understand why you ended up paying €10 too much when you played lanes 1 to 18. Unfortunately, you didn't complain immediately after your round. In a personal conversation we would certainly have found a quick solution. All that remains for me to say is sorry if my co-worker didn't point out the above options to you. If you call me, we can clarify open questions in a personal conversation. Good luck! René Schmitt. / President GC Erzgebirge eV
