GRI GARHANA BANDUNG, NOVEMBER 2016

On the second day we went to Gri Garhana, about 1 hour trip from the city centre. The course is situated near the medical faculty of the Penjajaran University. I once asked my son to study medicines  here but he didn't want otherwise I could have visited Bandung a few times a year. The club also have a lodging facilities if golfers want to stay and play at the club. 



The course itself was very good and very challenging for short and medium hitters. We only have 5  people to play golf so we asked to play jumbo but the General Manager who once worked at Glenmarie GC could not let us do it because of club policy. So we play 5 when the holes are away from clubhouse and we played three and two when near the club. 




The course played over 6,714 yards from the blue tee which is pretty long for me. Weekday rate about Rph 955,000 morning and Rph 845,000 afternoon. Located 1,000 meters aboe sea level within sight of Gunung Manglayang. There is   45 room resort available if you dont like the 1 hour return trip toBandung.Avoid coming during October to December because the fairways are more suitable for rice  ulttivation, very very wet.
