Despite being a bit on the short side, the golf course at Elmpter Wald must rank as one of the best in Germany. It has strategy, quirk, sandy fairways and heather galore.

The back story is eminently more interesting than the actual course , which is nice but could be so much better .

A really enjoyable course one that is already underrated, but should aim for a comfortable top 10 position in Germany, which should be very manageable with an injection of money and put in the right architectural hands.

I played the course now called Elmpter Wald a couple of times over the last few years, and I will hopefully come back to enjoy the course and surroundings many years to come.

With a little bit of money this could be a Top 10 course in Germany and with a lot of money it might even challenge a few of the heathland greats in England.
The latest ranking of the Top 100 Golf Courses in the World serves as the ultimate global golf bucket list. Most members of our World Top 100 Panel are seasoned golfers, each playing 20-30 of these courses annually while travelling extensively over decades to form their opinions on others. We recognise that opinions vary—even among our panel members. Rankings are subjective, and there are undoubtedly 50 or more courses in the UK and USA alone that could easily fit onto this list.
