GOLF RESORT SONNENALP-OBERALLGAU - GOLFPLATZE OBERALLGAU
🇩🇪 Bolsterlang, Bavaria, DE
Designed by Kurt Rossknecht
The Golf Resort Sonnenalp-Oberallgäu operates multiple courses in the Oberallgäu region of Bavaria, with the Kurz course designed by Kurt Rossknecht. Bolsterlang sits in the Allgäu Alps near Oberstdorf, placing this layout in one of Germany's most mountainous resort areas. The terrain here features significant elevation changes and alpine meadow character typical of Bavarian upland golf.
Rossknecht, a German architect active in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries, designed numerous courses across Germany and neighboring countries. His work in alpine and foothill settings typically emphasizes playability while incorporating natural topography. The Kurz course—its name meaning "short" in German—suggests a more compact routing, likely serving as an executive or shorter complement to the resort's longer championship layout. Such courses in Bavarian resort settings often provide accessible golf for guests of varying abilities while taking advantage of scenic mountain backdrops.
The Oberallgäu region attracts visitors year-round for skiing and hiking, and the golf facilities serve this tourism base during warmer months. Courses here contend with shorter growing seasons and must balance playability with the dramatic terrain that defines the landscape. The resort setting means the course likely integrates with broader hospitality amenities, serving both destination golfers and local members drawn to alpine golf in southern Bavaria.
