Volksrust Golf Club

Volksrust Golf Club is a 9-hole course located in the picturesque Mpumalanga Highveld of South Africa, stretching 6,399 meters. Founded in the early 1900s, the club has established itself as one of the region's notable golfing destinations. The course features gently undulating, tree-lined terrain that provides a challenging yet enjoyable experience for golfers of all levels.

A defining characteristic of Volksrust Golf Club is the iconic ancient giant tree standing in the middle of the fairway on the par-4 second hole, a downhill hole that presents golfers with a strategic choice from the back tee—either driving over the towering tree or navigating around it. This distinctive feature adds a memorable element to the course layout and distinguishes it from typical 9-hole designs.

The club earned a rating of 41.2 out of 60, with particular strength in design variety (8.0) and challenge (7.5). Historically significant as the home ground of Sunshine Tour star Nico van Rensburg, Volksrust Golf Club continues to offer an engaging golfing experience characterized by its unique landscape and course design elements.
