About this course

Pittsburgh National, carved into the rolling hills of Gibsonia, PA, is a reminder that challenging golf can thrive outside championship venues. Designed in the early 2000's, the course presents a modern take on parkland golf, demanding strategic play more than brute force. The course favors players who can shape the ball, rewarding controlled fades and draws into well-guarded greens. With water coming into play on several holes, Pittsburgh National requires thoughtful club selection and precise execution. The course isn't particularly notable on a national scale, but it is known regionally for its challenging layout and well-manicured conditions. While not steeped in major championship history, Pittsburgh National fosters a competitive spirit amongst its members. A popular destination for local tournaments and outings, the club provides a true test of golf for players of all skill levels.

Getting there

Pittsburgh National Golf Club lies just north of the city, accessible via Pittsburgh International Airport, a thirty-minute drive southwest of the property. The route winds northeast through the rolling terrain of Allegheny County, trading the urban pulse of Pittsburgh for the wooded ridgelines and pastoral valleys of Gibsonia. As the highway gives way to quieter country roads, the landscape opens into the kind of secluded, elevated ground that has long attracted those seeking privacy and natural beauty in equal measure. The final approach delivers you to a discreet entrance where the city feels worlds away, though it remains comfortably within reach.
