Top 15 Golf Courses of Poland 2023 

We’ve published a Top 10 chart for Poland every two years since 2010 but an increase in panellists allows us to add another five courses this time around. As there are only around thirty affiliated golf courses across the country (according to the R&A’s Golf Participation in Europe 2021 report) we think we’re doing well enough to cast a spotlight on half those golfing layouts.

Modry Las

First up, we have a new national #1 with the Gary Player-designed 18-hole Modry Las layout at the Modry Las Golf Resort moving up two places to the top spot, a position it last held between 2014 and 2018. Designated as PGA National Poland, the venue is now also home to a lovely little 9-hole par three track called Orli Las which overlooks the crystal-clear waters of Lake Raduñ, close to the clubhouse. 

Rosa

Also rising two places from #4 to #2 we have the 18-hole layout at Rosa Private Golf Club. Built almost twenty years ago by Arkadiusz Muś – the owner of Press Glass, whose new company headquarters are located next to the course – the course was laid out by Hans-Georg Erhardt, with several lakes excavated and quite a bit of soil shifted to fashion a really interesting series of holes on a largely flat landscape.

Wroclaw

The course at Wroclaw Golf Club – formerly known as Toya Golf & Country Club – rises two spots to #6 in our Polish rankings. Designed by French-based architect Jeremy Pern and opened for play in 2005, this 18-hole layout occupies an old military training ground where some of the old bomb craters and bunkers are said to have been incorporated into the design!

Black Water

The new course at Black Water Links is our highest new entry at #11. It only opened for business last year but it’s already making a name for itself with golfers in the Poznan area. Situated less than half an hour’s drive from the city airport, the layout is a Caspar Grauballe design with holes routed across a gently rolling landscape, surrounded on all sides by agriculture. A temporary clubhouse is in place for the time being.
