Completed upgrades at the Kitzbühel-Schwarzsee-Reith Golf Course
For a tournament of this calibre, fairways, greens, and teeing areas needed to meet the highest professional standards. The course at Kitzbühel-Schwarzsee-Reith has therefore been comprehensively refined in terms of layout, maintenance, and playability to fully meet the expectations of the tour and its players.
New Championship Tees
These have been carefully integrated into the existing course design without altering its character:
⛳ Hole 1
⛳ Hole 4 – the former par 4 has been reconfigured as a par 3 for the tour
⛳ Hole 5
⛳ Hole 6
⛳ Hole 8
⛳ Hole 13
⛳ Holes 14 & 17 – a shared double tee, based on the previous white tee of hole 17
New Fairway Bunker Zones
To further enhance the sporting challenge of the course, additional bunker areas have been introduced on selected fairways:
⛳ Hole 3
⛳ Hole 5
⛳ Hole 12
⛳ Hole 15
Extended Practice Facilities
A new chipping green, complete with practice bunker, has been added to the training area.
With these improvements, the Kitzbühel-Schwarzsee-Reith course now meets all the requirements of a top-level tournament venue – excelling both in terms of sporting challenge and striking visual appeal.
The hosting of the tournament in the SalzburgerLand and in Kitzbühel, Tyrol, marks a milestone for professional golf in Austria and sustainably strengthens the Alpine region as an attractive year-round destination. Golf fans can look forward to top-class competitions set against an impressive mountain backdrop – a sporting and tourist event of international standing.

Tradition, variety and an unparalleled Alpine panorama: the 18-hole Kitzbühel-Schwarzsee-Reith Golf Course brings together everything golfers could wish for. The final six holes, with their clever design, demand full concentration and skill. On several occasions, this course has also hosted prestigious international tournaments.
In short: diverse fairways, challenging water hazards and breathtaking views of the Tyrolean Alps make Kitzbühel-Schwarzsee-Reith a true highlight for every golfer.
Eichenheim Kitzbühel-Aurach golf course
The Eichenheim Golf Course is regarded as one of the most impressive in Austria. Nestled between the Wilder Kaiser and the Hohe Tauern ranges, this 18-hole, par-71 course offers breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains. Striking rock faces and dense woodlands shape the 6,092-metre layout, designed in 2001 by American architect Kyle Phillips. Its particular strength lies in the variety it offers and the way it blends seamlessly into the natural landscape.
Directly adjoining the course, the Grand Tirolia Hotel Kitzbühel combines contemporary elegance with traditional Alpine character, ensuring a stay of the highest comfort.
Golf club Kitzbühel, Kaps
After around 50 years of club history, the 9-hole course on the grounds of Schloss Kaps was reopened in 2006 and has since shone in new splendour. Its exclusive location on the sunny side of Kitzbühel and a series of sporting successes have made the course one of the most prestigious golf venues in Austria.
Just a few minutes from the town centre, golfers are welcomed by a varied 9-hole layout. The spectacular finishing holes are a particular highlight: hole 8 with its island green and hole 9 with its peninsula green in the castle park promise pure excitement – a place where triumphs can be achieved, or dreams dashed by the water.
Red Bull Golf at the Rasmushof
Right in the heart of Kitzbühel, in the finish area of the legendary Streif downhill course, lies the 9-hole Red Bull Golf at Rasmushof. Compact yet challenging – that’s the best way to describe this course. It caters equally well to advanced players and beginners. The first four holes wind through hilly terrain before holes 5 and 6 take you up onto the Streif itself. The reward: an unrivalled view over Kitzbühel’s historic town centre.
After your round, the spacious sun terrace invites you to relax and savour delicious Tyrolean specialities – the perfect way to round off a day of golf.
