Laid out in rolling foothills, the course at Ba Na Hills features natural elevation changes, ravines, streams and mountain backdrops. The front-nine – a thrilling collection of holes laid out in traditional parkland style – contains a number of highlights, not least the par-3 8th, a gem of a downhill short hole. The closing stretch of the course is, if anything, even better. The short 16th with its island green is eye-catching, and so too is the 17th, a dogleg par 4 with water guarding the green.
