This is regarded as one of the toughest courses in India from the championship tee. It is truly a thinking man’s course and as opposed to brute force, you would need an intelligent strategy to tame it. At this place, the par-3 second is considered a challenging hole. The tee shot should cover 219 yards of a deep channel to reach the green. Even the par-4 seventh has a measure of 480 yards. Most of the greens of The Forest Hill Golf Resort have extreme undulations, thus commanding a premium on approach shots. Another challenge that this course poses is that of the par-5 ninth, a double dogleg that is nearly impossible to reach in two.
Last but not the least is the Chandimandir Golf Course where the avid golfers can play to their heart’s content.
