  Simola Golf Course Garden Route course
Designer:
Jack Nicklaus

Distance:
Champ 6466m, Club 6095m, Par 72.

Character:
This 18 hole golf course build in the hills behind Knysna, incorporates two natural amphitheatres. No where else in the world will you get such glorious views from all corners of the golf course. You will have spectacular views of the Outeniqua Mountains and Knysna lagoon

Signature hole:
The breathtaking 10th hole will require a tee shot from a 200m elevated tee. If you are a straight hitter, you will not have a problem landing your ball in the narrow landing area of the fairway.

"When I first started, I only knew how to do one thing, and that was to put a golf course on a piece of ground that only a good player could play ...
"Easy courses are fun occasionally, but I don't think they stand the 'test of time' to be considered great courses… However, when I start to design a golf course, I don't intentionally try to make it as tough as I can. I simply aim to create a golf course that will be a demanding test of skill for the accomplished golfer playing from the back tees. But, at the same time, I want to offer a challenging, yet enjoyable experience for the average or beginner player who lays from the appropriate tees and thinks his or her way around the golf course."

- Jack Nicklaus (as quoted in Unique Homes Magazine)
