Clarens Golf Course is a par 71 golf course, designed and constructed by Golf Data, is bound to excite every level of golfer. All 18 holes meander along and across the tranquil river and its splendid series of dams and cascading waterfalls. Fly fishing is an attraction for visitors and a day ticket can be bought to fish the town dam and there are also day facilities available at Craigrossie and De Molen farm. Unfortunately no fishing is allowed at Klein Caledon due to the very delicate eco system. |
