Catastrophic

I'm only giving one star for the genuinely friendly welcome and the good cars. Everything else is forgettable. The restaurant was closed, so there's nothing positive to say about it. A place you should definitely avoid.

Dear Greenfee Guest, we sincerely thank you for at least satisfying your satisfaction with the friendly welcome at GC Traunsee Almtal. Since, as you stated, "everything else can be forgotten," allow me to briefly list what you seem to have overlooked in your review. First, you failed to mention that the greens – as announced on all our platforms – were currently being aerated. You also neglected to mention that, precisely for this reason, we only charged €30 (instead of €84) for an 18-hole green fee. Well, what also seems to have escaped you is that you chose a day for your visit when our restaurant is closed. This, too, would have been easily apparent to you beforehand. And yes, if one wishes, one could criticize the fairways, which are still recovering from an incredible heatwave and drought. However, this is entirely beyond our control. In any case, we are relieved that dozens of hectares of fairways haven't been lost to the vegetation beneath our feet. Kind regards and many thanks for your understanding response, Thomas Edtmeier

It will be

After the crash last year, a competent and committed team was formed and redesigned the club and especially the pitch.
Last year the course conditions were catastrophic, a new greenkeeper team is trying to eliminate the major defects. This has generally been a success, the fairways are in very good condition, the greens are on the right track but are still too soft and therefore relatively slow.
Some of the bunkers have been removed, especially on holes 6 and 7.
Unfortunately, hole 7 has lost its appeal due to the loss of the large fairway bunker.
Another major drawback is the burnt tee boxes and the lack of catering.
But we are working on that too and then 4 stars should be possible again!

Varied place with many sloping tracks

The first 9 holes on this varied course lead down or run in the green Laudach Valley, the second 9 predominantly have sloping fairways and are sometimes difficult to play. The course maintenance is okay, but nothing more, the greens are rather small and not undulating too much.
Overall, the course suffers a little from the very sloping last lanes, but a nice lap is always possible.
The clubhouse has a beautiful view, the restaurant has a wonderful terrace and an attractive range.

Fantastically beautiful place

The place is in great condition!
The chef in the restaurant leaves nothing to be desired!
The staff, the president and his wife are so friendly and courteous! No wishes remain unfulfilled here, golf with friends! Something like that is not common!

Is ok

The course is ok, it belongs on a Attersee golf tour. But not an extraordinary meadow!

Pure service!

The place is better than the GC Attersee. The very undulating and difficult-to-play greens were mowed short with an arrow when we visited a tournament and flagged with extremely difficult flag positions!
That made the course interesting and difficult. The service and the friendliness of the lady (Andrea) at the counter, the Marshall was outstanding! After more than 700 seats, I have already experienced almost everything, but I have still experienced so much warmth and hospitality (by the way, generally on all seats on the Attersee)! Drinks were brought to us in the car and a regional schnapps was served!
Andrea was waiting again in the halfway house and bought us beer and cold drinks! After the 18-hole round, an 8th table was already reserved for us! All together unique!

Heat damage??

The beautiful and hard-to-play course unfortunately has extremely unsightly tee boxes that need to be refurbished most urgently. The fast and sprightly greens are beautiful, but also have minor damage (eg, green 8) which belong to the patched.
The course is short but very exciting. At the rearmost tee of the 2, you get on the 18th in Augasta, so a narrow swath!
Slopes and slopes are typical of this sympathetic place.

Happy again in hopefully nicer tee boxes.

Interesting place in the Alpine foothills

The golf course is integrated into the hilly landscape of the Prealps, with partly difficult to play slopes. The fairways are neat and the greens quite fast and consistent. The tees are partially cambered and should be leveled again.

The layout is interesting and requires, as already mentioned, a well considered and tactically clever game. The height differences between, from he also in the lanes need a certain level of fitness. But we played the course on foot within 4 hours without any problems.

We will gladly come back.

A challenge

To play the HC in the square, is a real challenge (mentally and physical condition). Almost every shot should be carefully considered because the wrong spot is often punished with a difficult angle. A few strange holes are offset by some real dream holes (hole number 3 is the finest par 3 that I know in Austria). Always worth a visit.

Very friendly staff, a lovely terrace and a good restaurant round out the picture.

No classic but beautiful place

Set in the beautiful Salzkammergut region a beautiful and well-kept golf course! Not easy to play in part because rather narrow fairways and small greens, and due to the length of the square also good scores are reached.
