Dalat Palace Golf Club: Vietnam’s Premier Highland Golf Destination

Nestled 1,500 meters above sea level in the cool central highlands, Dalat Palace Golf Club offers a refined golfing experience steeped in history and natural beauty. Originally built in 1922 and redesigned by Brett Stensen in 1994, this award-winning course winds through stately pine forests and rolling hills, with panoramic views of Xuan Huong Lake and French colonial architecture.

The layout challenges low-handicap players with strategic bunkering and water hazards across ten holes, while wide fairways and generous greens offer forgiveness for newer golfers. The crisp mountain air and serene setting make every round a pleasure, whether you’re chasing a personal best or enjoying a leisurely escape.
