Golf - Only three days to qualify for the golf course - perfect golfing in the "Salzburg Sportwelt". It usually takes a very long time until golf rookies qualify to play on a course. At the golf club in Radstadt things are different... here it only takes a 3-day "Pro Golf Camp" basic training to qualify for the Par-3 9-hole golf course. This is the perfect course for beginners to practise and to experience the true fascination of this exciting sport. More importantly, the 18-hole course on foot of the Dachstein massif has become a popular destination for golf fans, mainly because of a unique feature: the "Birdie Jet" gondola ropeway from the 11th to the 12th hole. And at hole 13 golfers can enjoy a marvellous vista of the whole golf course. Additionally the Radstadt golf club features a 250 m driving range, roof-covered tee-offs, practice bunkers, pitching and putting greens, and a pro shop with gear rental.
