Highland Gate, RSA
Highland Gate Golf & Trout Estate: nestling in the Steenkampsberg mountain range near Dullstroom in Mpumalanga, and located just two and a half hours drive from Johannesburg, Highland Gate is home to a well-rated Ernie Els-designed championship layout.
Set against a scenic backdrop of rolling mountain terrain, Els' enjoyably testing layout provides a challenge to both club player and tour professional alike.
Rated by many as a Top 20 South African course, the expansive open parkland layout contains many excellent holes as it rolls its way through pleasantly undulating terrain. One of Highland Gate’s many strengths lies in its high altitude charm which continually delivers a scenic and memorable golf experience.
Stay&Play at Highland Gate: although not managed by the Highland Gate Estate, onsite accommodation is available in short-term rental properties (see Highland Gate website).
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends. Closed Mondays.
