Black Mountain Golf – Hua Hin
18 Hole Par 36 – 6904 metre, 7550 Yards
The Thai Nordic Group have developed an 18 hole resort about 10 minutes from the town of Hua Hin (about 2.5 hours drive south from Bangkok). PCD were appointed to Site Master Plan the resort, residential and condominiums as well as design the 18 hole golf course.
The site is set beneath a large “black” rock mountain within two main valleys leading off down to the main road and gives rise to spectacular views down the valley, into the distant mountains and back into the black mountain. Given the projects location and the earthworks undertaken the site has been transformed into an exciting venue for both championship and resort golf to international standards.
