Golfplatz Lederbach - Quellness Golf Resort Bad Griesbach

Lederbach

Bad Griesbach i.Rottal, Bayern, Germany

Golfplatz Lederbach, designed by Kurt Rossknecht, is an 18-hole course that distinguishes itself through its distinctive alpine-style terrain. Located within Quellness Golf Resort Bad Griesbach, the course features steep elevation changes, significant height variations, and challenging slopes that demand both skill and stamina from players. The layout includes numerous uphill and downhill sections with pronounced ridges and sideslopes. The course is notable for its panoramic views across the Rottal region, extending to the Bavarian Forest, Bad Griesbach, and the Alps on clear days. A signature challenge is the infamous "Herzschlaghügel" (heart attack hill) at hole 9, a Par 4 where the final 150 meters from fairway to green feature a 48-percent gradient, making it one of Germany's ten most difficult holes. Hole 17, a lengthy uphill Par 5, presents another significant test. Walking players require considerable endurance, though the resort maintains over 120 electric golf carts—Germany's largest fleet—primarily stationed at Lederbach. A popular clubhouse between the first tee and eighteenth green adds to the course's appeal. Dogs on leashes are permitted on the course.
