At Terrace Downs, Mother Nature herself provided the foundations for the perfect golf course.
The resort's 550 acres of pristine high country are set against the dramatic backdrop of the Southern Alps - creating a course that is as picturesque as it is challenging.
The 18-hole, par 72, championship course is rated among the top in the country and features four different tee positions for the enjoyment of players of all abilities.
At a length of 6,406-metres, it includes 11 lakes and 70 bunkers with something to test even the most experienced golfer. Players will remember every hole, use every club in their bag and eagerly anticipate the next day's play.
The course is complemented by a generous driving range and short-game area, as well as world-class services.
The signature hole for Terrace Downs is the par 3 16th. The short par three plays 100 metres off the regular tees and can often be treacherous. The hole is situated to the side of the picturesque Rakaia Gorge and includes spectacular views of the Rakaia River, Gorge and the towering Mt Hutt Ranges.
Includes: 18-hole round of golf FOR 2 PEOPLE with electric cart hire.
