Terrace Downs Resort GC: A High-Country Golf Gem

This resort mountain course has a nice mix of shot-making holes against a backdrop of the Southern Alps

A Blend of Parkland and Links

Just an hour’s drive from Christchurch, New Zealand, Terrace Downs Resort offers a stunning golfing experience nestled amidst the Rakaia Gorge. With breathtaking views of the surrounding Mt. Hutt range, this resort caters to both avid golfers and families seeking outdoor adventures.

The course is divided into two distinct sections: a parkland-style front nine, featuring a sheltered and wooded feel, and a back nine that embraces a more links-like terrain. With 60 bunkers, 10 lakes, a meandering river, and the majestic Southern Alps as a backdrop, Terrace Downs provides a dramatic and immersive golfing experience.

Golfers can choose from four different tees on each hole, as this intense landscape requires players to carry over ravines, thick bush and river.

Tip: Check the wind conditions prior to making the trip to this course, as sometimes in the Spring it can be very breezy.

Signature Holes

16th: One of the most exciting shots is from this par-3, which overlooks the Raikaia River and is separated from the green by ravines. Attention should also be paid to a bunker protecting the green on the front side.

Whether you’re a seasoned golfer or a casual player seeking a memorable experience, Terrace Downs Resort GC offers a unique and picturesque setting. With its challenging course, stunning scenery, and family-friendly amenities, it’s a must-visit destination for golf enthusiasts in New Zealand.
