4.5 km W of Ulrichsberg / 61 km NW of Linz.
Golfpark Böhmerwald, open to visitors on weekdays and weekends, occupies a natural and quiet setting amongst the open countryside and forests of the Mühlviertel "quarter" of Upper Austria. Located just 5 km from the border with Germany, the undulating slopes of Böhmerwald are home to a pleasant and predominantly open parkland layout.
Plenty of gently dog-legging holes, and half a dozen with noticeable elevation change, lead you to relatively small, well bunker-defended greens. Water also comes into play on a few occasions, but not too frequently. Distances between greens and the next tees are generally short, which ensures an enjoyable walking experience, albeit with a few slopes to climb.
Along the way you'll enjoy wonderful views across open farmland and onto tree-covered hills, with many attractive villages and open skies completing the scene. There are no houses, roads or pylons on or around the course. And none intruding into the surrounding views, which allows you to focus on your golf game and the sweeping vistas that the Mühlviertel offers.
Pick of the holes: the rifle-straight "signature" par-4 13th plays downhill, a small pond and stream crossing in front of the green. The surrounding wooded hills provide an attractive backdrop to this testing hole.
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends during the golf season (generally mid-April thru' mid-November ... snow dependent!).
Must book in advance.
Players generally walk this course. Golf carts available for hire. Böhmerwald is a dog-friendly golf course; dogs must be kept on a leash.

The holiday region of Böhmerwald (Bohemian Forest) is located in the Upper Mühlviertel, the border triangle of Upper Austria that borders Bavaria in Germany and the Czech Republic. This picturesque Mühlviertel landscape, home to linseed oil, art weavers, Adalbert Stifter (Austrian writer, poet, and educationalist) and a special brewing tradition, has inspired locals and visitors alike.

The Masters: The 88th Masters Tournament at Augusta National sees LIV golfer Jon Rahm defend his title against the world’s best. Pressing hard will be world No.1 and 2022 champion Scottie Scheffler and world No.2 Rory McIlroy (April 11-14).
Chevron Championship: the women’s major championship season gets underway for the second year at its new Carlton Woods home outside Houston, Texas. World No.2 Lilia Vu defends (April 18-21).
Nelly Korda: records a perfect start to 2024 with five wins out of her last five starts on the LPGA Tour. Winning the Chevron Championship also brought the second major championship win of her career.
Scottie Scheffler: narrowly missed out on matching Nelly Korda's five wins in five starts, when he placed second at the Houston Open. Either side of that, he won The Arnold Palmer, The Players, and then The Masters and The Heritage.
Marco Simone Golf & Country Club: With a clubhouse that might befit a Roman Emperor, and a golf course to match, you can be sure of a memorable outing at Rome's most talked about golf facility.
Jim Fazio's original layout was much changed to create a modern Ryder Cup course ... now one of the Eternal City's (and Italy's) most revered.
