The Daemyeong Resorts leisure company operates sixty-three holes of golf at three separate locations and all but eighteen of those holes are available for public play. Del Pino is located near Sokcho, in the far northeast of Gangwon-do, where an 18-hole course is available for pay and play golfers.

Here at the Vivaldi Park ski resort, located an hour’s drive north of the capital, in the shadow of Mount Palbongsan, there are twenty-seven holes (nine of which are public) in use at Vivaldi Park Country Club. Less than three kilometres to the north, Sono Felice Country Club is home to another 18-hole public layout.

Designed by Orange Engineering, Sono Felice is a mountain course that comprises two returning circuits, the Healing nine and the Eco nine. Highlights include the double doglegged 620-metre par five 3rd on the Healing loop and the right doglegged 514-metre 4th on the Eco nine, with water hazards featuring prominently at both these holes.

World Top 100 Golf Courses

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.
