The Most Amazing Golf Courses of the World: Arosa, Switzerland

http://janson.com On a sunny mountain plateau in the middle of the Grison Mountain Range lies the Arosa Golf Club. In the daytime, at an altitude of over 1800 meters above sea level, an incredibly diverse game awaits you on the same terrain where the cows have grazed during the night. The course is the work of father and son. Donald Harradine completed the first nine holes in 1946, straight after the Second World War. 55 years later his son created the second nine holes. The way the architecture of Golf Courses has changed during this time is reflected in the different design of the holes. The journey through time between the two designer generations is what gives this course its special character.

The Most Amazing Golf Courses of the World: Villars, Switzerland (Tips From The Pros)

http://janson.com Villars alpine Golf club in the Valais, south-west Switzerland, is located at 1600 metres above sea level. After a trip on a road which, for tourists, seems quite narrow, you arrive at the sunny terrace with its sensational view into the Valais Alps. From here, even in midsummer, you can look out over the eternal snows. The incredible panorama is, however, not the only reason why so many tourists regularly return to this spot. The terrain was extremely well undulated by the architect, Thierry Sprecher. You will find bunkers in the way all of a sudden, and the route leads over natural water hazards such as mountain streams.
