If you’re a golfer who loves to travel, it’s time to pack your clubs and prepare for an adventure unlike any other! African Sun Hotels invites you to discover two of the most stunning golf courses in Zimbabwe. Whether you’re teeing off with wildlife in the Victoria Falls savannah or enjoying a serene escape in the eastern highlands, a golf trip to Elephant Hills Resort or Troutbeck Resort promises to be so much more than just birdies, pars, and bogies.
Elephant Hills Resort – Golfing in the wild with a splash of adventure
Imagine this: You’re lining up your shot, and just beyond the fairway, you catch a glimpse of elephants roaming in the distance or warthogs casually grazing by your side and waterbuck curiously watching you. This is Elephant Hills Resort, where every swing comes with a safari vibe! The pristine 18-hole championship course, crafted by the iconic Gary Player, is perched close to the mighty Victoria Falls, giving you not just a game but a bucket-list experience. Make sure to record yourself at the infamous hole 14.
After an exhilarating round, the fun doesn’t stop. Go on a sunset cruise along the Zambezi River, explore Victoria Falls on foot, or take a helicopter ride for a bird’s-eye view of the “Smoke that Thunders.” And if you’re feeling daring, why not try bungee jumping or white-water rafting to really get your heart racing? When you’re ready to relax, head to the resort’s spa for a well-earned massage or unwind with a cocktail by the pool. At Elephant Hills, golf is just the beginning!
Troutbeck Resort – Highland golf and laid-back leisure
Prefer your rounds a little more laid-back? Head to the picturesque Troutbeck Resort in Zimbabwe’s Eastern Highlands, where peace reigns supreme. The 9-hole course here is all about cool mountain air, scenic views on every hole, and perfecting that short game. Each hole is surrounded by misty mountains and lush green hills, creating a tranquil setting that makes every putt feel effortless (well, almost!). Did you know, Troutbeck has the highest elevated tee in Africa and if you fancy yourself a champion driver, have a go at hole 3 (wink wink).
But what happens after you conquer the course? At Troutbeck, the options are endless for you and your family. Try your hand at trout fishing in the resort’s private lake, or take a hike through the enchanting Nyanga National Park. Feeling adventurous? Hop on a quad bike and explore the highlands in style. When it’s time to kick back, cozy up with a book in the lounge, indulge in a hearty meal at the restaurant, or simply soak in the breathtaking mountain views. It’s golf meets zen, with a dash of adventure.
Why settle for one amazing course when you can have two?
African Sun Hotels offers the best of both worlds: the wild, untamed beauty of Elephant Hills and the peaceful, highland charm of Troutbeck. Whether you’re chasing the thrill of playing alongside elephants or enjoying a quiet round in the hills, these courses promise an unforgettable golfing experience.
So, grab your clubs, gather your sense of adventure, and get ready to swing, stay, and play in Zimbabwe’s ultimate golfing paradise. Trust us, this is one trip you’ll be talking about long after the last ball drops in the cup.
