Black Mountain Golf Club – Hua Hin
Nestled in the foothills just west of Hua Hin, Black Mountain Golf Club is widely recognized as one of the premier golf courses in Thailand and across Asia. Opened in 2007 and designed by Phil Ryan of Pacific Coast Design, Black Mountain has received numerous international awards, including being named one of the "100 Best Golf Courses Outside the USA" by Golf Digest.
The course sits amid dramatic natural surroundings, with lush tropical vegetation, rugged mountain backdrops, and natural rock outcroppings seamlessly integrated into the design. Black Mountain offers an exhilarating golfing experience that challenges players of all levels while providing stunning scenery at every turn.
Whether you are a professional competing in a major tournament or a leisure golfer enjoying a holiday, Black Mountain promises a memorable round of championship golf in one of Thailand’s most beautiful regions.
Course Layout & Design
Black Mountain features 27 holes: the original East Course and West Course make up the championship 18 holes, while an additional 9-hole North Course was added later.
The course is a par-72 championship layout spanning 7,343 yards from the back tees. The design offers wide fairways, elevated greens, large bunkers, and significant water hazards on multiple holes. The mountainous terrain creates natural elevation changes and varied shot-making challenges.
Every hole is thoughtfully crafted to offer risk-reward opportunities, scenic beauty, and strategic play, ensuring an exciting experience every time.
Signature Holes Include:
-
Hole 6 (Par 5): A dramatic downhill hole with a stunning lake running along the right side, offering risk-reward options for long hitters.
-
Hole 11 (Par 3): An intimidating par-3 over water to a narrow green framed by rock formations and mountain views.
-
Hole 18 (Par 5): A challenging finishing hole with water in play from tee to green and a heavily bunkered approach.
