Golf & Country Club Zürich sits in Zumikon, a hillside community overlooking Lake Zürich in the canton's eastern suburbs. Established in 1931, the course was designed by Donald Harradine, the Scottish-born architect who became the most prolific golf course designer in Switzerland and continental Europe during the mid-twentieth century. Harradine shaped more than a hundred courses across Europe, and his work at Zürich represents his approach to integrating golf into the region's rolling terrain and wooded landscapes. The course occupies elevated ground with views toward the lake and the surrounding Swiss countryside. Harradine routed the holes through mixed woodland and open meadow, working with the natural slopes and contours of the site. The layout requires players to navigate changes in elevation and manage approaches to greens set into hillsides or positioned on plateaus. Trees frame many holes, and the terrain creates uneven lies and demands thoughtful club selection. Golf & Country Club Zürich serves as one of the established private clubs in the Zürich area, reflecting the development of golf in Switzerland during the interwar and postwar periods. The club maintains traditional membership practices common to European golf clubs of its era. Harradine's design has been adapted over the decades to accommodate modern play while preserving the character of a course shaped by the landscape constraints and design conventions of the 1930s.
