Surprisingly good
Reviewed August 13, 2024
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
Reviewed September 18, 2023
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
Reviewed August 10, 2023
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!

Good "provincial square"
Reviewed July 23, 2022
Mountainous, always up and down, but still always fair to play, you can get along well with the place even if you are not so familiar with the area.
Clubhouse very simple, but it's enough for a beer after the round.
The front nine were in good shape, better than last year. I can't say anything about the condition of the back nine because I haven't played them for a long time.

From year to year worse
Reviewed May 4, 2017
We have been a member of Gahlenz for several years.
Four to five years ago this was a great golf club.
Good fairways, nice paths, varied, average greens. The tournaments were still well attended.
But especially since 2016 this golf club resembles a cul-de-sac.
There are two golf clubs, both of which use the course, Erzgebirge and Gahlenz. Both clubs are blaming themselves for the club's failure.
Since 2015/2016, the square maintenance has diminished, the greens were compared with fairways in other places, all the players disappeared in a meter high Rough. Partly the greenkeaters were too lazy to get out of the mines when mowing and have simply mown one meter around.
Tournaments were only made up of 8 men.
Overall a golf course just before the Aus! Unfortunately, because the place itself is very nice.
The logical consequence was the dismissal in Gahlenz, because even in 2017 the place does not look any better, the greens even worse.

Great place
Reviewed June 5, 2016
Beautiful place with some great views of the surrounding area. Very nice and courteous staff. Cart or electric trolley are recommended because of the slopes. No wait, we were surprised how little there is going on. VG Heiner

Well maintained and beautiful plant
Reviewed August 23, 2014
We played the course on three consecutive days in August 2014. Overall, the course was in very good condition. A beautiful driving range, can be very easily knocked off by manicured lawns on the. Many balls for little money. Nice area for chipping and pitching. Great and lovingly landscaped, hilly course with manicured greens really! Fairways were in excellent condition, well maintained and at the same time juicy. On the back nine, we were almost alone!!! Really surprising that so few golfers were out on all three days. Overall, an unbeatable price-performance ratio. The only small suggestion: the tee mats leave abrasion on the club head, which can, however, cope with this plant. We'll be back!

Two Bavaria, Saxony
Reviewed June 20, 2011
Thank you again for the great tournament at 18 June! Starting with the brass of the village festival (it felt right at home in Bavaria!), The extremely nice and helpful members and staff (thanks again to Ms. Teubert for quick trolley replacement or repair), the challenging course (thanks to the wind and the non-existent space knowledge were "sacrificed" in the practice round 15 Pro V1 balls - this Hans has what to search for ...). Many blind haircuts, constant uphill and downhill (E-Trolley recommended), wind direction, plan, take plenty of drinks, many "ballverschluckende" bushes, relatively slow greens. Wonderful views of the picturesque landscape of the Ore Mountains, little going on, so you can hit a second ball sometimes without hassle.
We will come back! Greetings from Erding Green Brook.

Pleasant
Reviewed May 3, 2011
The golf course is about 30 minutes from the motorway and the end of April was in good condition, the greens correspondingly difficult. The course is very hilly, it goes up and down, but mostly it is very windy. The back nine you should absolutely play, they are very challenging and really fun.
In the tournament you will be very warm, almost familär Date and gets good advice, if you want. Marshall also active in the tournament and the food is good.

Beautiful solid place
Reviewed May 21, 2010
I have a place at the 18th Recorded May 2010. It is something abseitz in a hilly landscape. The condition was good, especially the greens were very well maintained. It has some blind shots both off the tee and from the fairway. It's constantly up and down, but the place on foot is good to manage. The green fee is reasonable. I was received at the Secretariat friendly.
