St. Wolfgang Uttlau Course
Golf Resort Bad Griesbach - St. Wolfgang Golfplatz Uttlau
About this course
St. Wolfgang Uttlau is an 18-hole course located in Haarbach, Bavaria, part of the Golf Resort Bad Griesbach complex in Germany's Lower Bavaria region. Designed by Kurt Rossknecht, the course sits within a landscape characterized by gently rolling farmland and wooded areas typical of the Inn-Salzach region, where the terrain transitions between river valleys and forested hills. Bad Griesbach has developed into one of Central Europe's larger golf destinations, with multiple courses serving both resort guests and regional members. St. Wolfgang Uttlau operates as one of several layouts in this network, offering a parkland-style routing that incorporates natural elevation changes and mature tree stands. The design reflects Rossknecht's approach to integrating golf holes into the existing topography without dramatic earthmoving, allowing the land's natural contours to define shot values and strategic options. The course serves a mixed clientele of traveling golfers visiting the spa resort facilities and local players from the surrounding Bavarian communities. The region's moderate climate supports a playing season that extends from spring through autumn, with course conditions influenced by the area's agricultural character and proximity to forested zones. As part of a larger resort operation, the layout provides variety within the Bad Griesbach portfolio rather than standing alone as a championship venue, fitting into the broader recreational and wellness-focused offerings that define the destination.

Getting there
The gateway to Golf Resort Bad Griesbach - St. Wolfgang Golfplatz Uttlau is Munich Airport (MUC), roughly ninety minutes northeast by car through the gently rolling farmland and forest of Lower Bavaria. The drive traces the Inn River valley eastward toward the Austrian border, passing through quiet market towns and open countryside before arriving in the thermal spa region anchored by Bad Griesbach. For those seeking discretion, private aviation can route through Salzburg (SZG) across the border or smaller regional fields, though the road journey remains the most evocative - a gradual retreat from Alpine drama into the softer, pastoral rhythms of the Rottal, where the resort's collection of championship layouts awaits amid meadows and woodland.
