Sculpted into the rugged rock terrain, the Red Mountain Golf Course is a scenic delight and a true challenge destined to become a golfing landmark in the region. The par 72 is a highly strategic course, with numerous risk and reward opportunities creating a stimulating test for golfers of all levels. Coursing through 6, 781yards, the course designed by Jon Morrow and Al Tikkanen cleverly exploits the dramatic land forms and elevation changes remnant of the tin mine.
Red mountain has been build to the highest international standards and is immaculately maintained with a strong dedicated to environmental protection. Tees and fairways are grassed with Seashore Paspalum and green are grassed with Bermuda Novotek. Playing areas are capped with a deep, clean sand layer enabling excellent drainage and swift resumption of play after seasonal Phuket rain showers.
Red Mountain Golf Course features twisting fairways frames by bright red rock cliffs, splashes of thick jungle and spectacular viewpoints. The Signature Par 3 17th Hole takes you from a breathtakingly precipitous ledge, down over 40 meters through towering trees to a lush green valley carved out of the bright red rock below.
The friendly staff at the Pro Shop can help with all golfers' need from equipment and paraphernalia to souvenir T-shirts and postcards. The Pro Shop also caters to international golfers with a excellent range of top brand clubs available for rent.
The Clubhouse reflected the cool elegance of nature with views over the Red Mountain cliffs and the course's dramatic opening and closing holes. The air-conditioned restaurant serves a variety of Thai and international dishes, as well as a first-class breakfast to give golfer a healthy head start. After 18 holes, the shady restaurant terrace is a perfect place for a relaxing drink or a light meal outdoors fanned by constant refreshing breezes.
Exclusive and private, yet spacious enough for large groups, the Clubhouse at Red Mountain is ideal for corporate events, private functions and tournaments.
Red Mountain is more than just a great golf. A stunning garden of tropical trees, flowers and shrubs exhibit the most beautiful and vibrant flora of the area attracting Phuket's colorful species of butterflies and birds. Ornithological Trails introduce bird watches to some of region's most spectacular and distinctive birds.
Man's legacy at the Tin Mine was a unique landscape for the magic of nature's renewal and rejuvenation and a magnificent raw canvas for our Golf Course Designs. Rare and beautiful forms of plants and wildlife; exotic Ferns and Wild Orchids, Indian Rhododendrons and Nepenthes have flourished in the old mine landscape. In areas untouched by man, marvel at Phuket's stunning virgin forest where ancient trees reach for the clouds and weird and wonderful wildlife create a cacophony of tropical jungle sounds.
