About Golfsociëteit De Lage Vuursche

Golfsociëteit De Lage Vuursche in Den Dolder, Utrecht, is an 18-hole, par-71 golf course in woodland and parkland, designed by Kyle Phillips.

Golfsociëteit De Lage Vuursche lies on the Dolderseweg in Den Dolder, in the centre of the Netherlands, between the neighbouring De Pan and Hilversumsche golf courses. Its woods and parkland are broken up by six ponds, so water comes into play on many holes.

Can visitors play De Lage Vuursche? Yes: Golfsociëteit De Lage Vuursche is a private golf club, but green fee players are welcome from Monday to Thursday. Book your tee time with the club by phone, no more than three days in advance.

De Lage Vuursche took fifteen years to build, from the first idea in 1985 to its opening in 2000. The American golf architect Kyle Phillips designed the course and still returns every year to inspect it. The Dutch golf federation (NGF) regularly holds competitions at De Lage Vuursche, and the club hosted the Dutch Strokeplay Championship in 2008.

Every hole at De Lage Vuursche is named after a place somewhere in the world, from Karpaten (the Carpathians) on the 1st to Taiwan on the 18th. The 7th, Brooks Range, is a 411-metre par 4 from the white tees and stroke index 1, the hardest hole on the card. The 8th, Oeral (the Urals), is the longest at 546 metres from the white tees: a par 5.

De Lage Vuursche has eleven par 4s, four par 3s and three par 5s. The front nine play to par 35 and the back nine to par 36, and each can be played as a separate loop. The course measures 6,287 metres from the white tees and 4,983 metres from the red tees. From the white tees the men's course rating is 75.2 with a slope of 145; from the yellow tees it is 74.3 and 146. For women, the course rating from the red tees is 73.4 with a slope of 138.
