Black Forest Golf & Country Club: GOLF COURSE APPEARS TO BE CLOSED ... probably on a permanent basis. Check for current status before planning a visit.
[Original Where2Golf description]: Black Forest Golf & Country Club is home to a good quality course located close to the Malaysia-Thailand border, about as far north as you can go in the country. Its wide fairways make it a favourite with golfers of all levels, its popularity also based on the fact that it is a public, non-membership course.
Formerly a sugar cane and rubber plantation, the layout occupies lightly tree-lined, flattish terrain. The undulating greens are generally well-protected by large bunkers.
Course appears to be closed. Uncertain if and when course will reopen.
Golf carts available for hire. Caddies compulsory.
Located at Bukit Kayu Hitam, close to the Malaysia - Thailand border, Black Forest is actually located within a designated duty free zone, which attracts huge numbers of shoppers from both sides of the border.
