Golf courses nearby – from clubs founded in the early 1900s to a course on a reclaimed spoil heap.
Golf23 kmFounded in 1904, the club is one of the oldest in the country, and its 18-hole championship course lies in the woods about 5 km from the centre of Karlovy Vary, on the road to Prague. Visitors are welcome – just book a tee time. There's a driving range, a training centre and a restaurant with a terrace.
Golf19 kmA Scottish-style 18-hole course (par 70) in the Teplá valley near Karlovy Vary, inside the Slavkov Forest protected landscape area. It was designed by Gary Player's company and opened in 2001. Next to it are a nine-hole golf academy you can play without a green card and a chateau hotel with a spa.
Golf32 kmA historic 18-hole course above Mariánské Lázně, opened in 1905 by King Edward VII of Britain, who came here to take the cure. You play among the forests above the spa town from April to October; there is a driving range, a golf academy for children and a restaurant. Visitors can book tee times too.
Golf15 kmA nine-hole course from 1994 on the edge of Horní Luby, in the hills between Cheb, Františkovy Lázně and Sokolov at 500–600 m. Stone tees and water hazards, a driving range, putting and chipping greens and a clubhouse restaurant, with a guesthouse right on site. A public course that welcomes beginners and experienced players alike.
Golf27 kmAn 18-hole course in the English park of Kynžvart Chateau on the edge of the Slavkov Forest, covering almost 100 hectares.

Golf25 kmAn 18-hole course (par 72, over 6.5 km) opened in 2003 in gently rolling countryside near Hazlov, about 6 km from Františkovy Lázně. More than a hundred hectares with plenty of water hazards that will test experienced players too. Easy to combine with a stroll around the spa town or a visit to Cheb.
Golf21 kmA quiet nine-hole course in the Slavkov Forest protected area near Kolová, about 12 km from the centre of Karlovy Vary. Smaller and more intimate than the big resort courses nearby, with a driving range and a clubhouse. Non-members can play on a green fee.
Golf17 kmAn unusual course inside the Dvory racecourse, next to the Varyáda shopping centre. Nine tees and eighteen holes: you play each fairway twice, each time to a different green (par 68). Players without a handicap can play with an instructor or a player who has one, and on race days the horses come as a bonus.
Golf38 kmA nine-hole course and a six-hole pitch & putt right next to the Premonstratensian monastery in Teplá, in the Slavkov Forest landscape. The club was founded in 1995 and has a driving range, a practice green and a golf pro. The pitch & putt is a good first step for beginners.
Golf34 kmAn 18-hole course in Neualbenreuth, Bavaria, just across the border south of Cheb. Visitors play on a green fee, the clubhouse has an Italian pizzeria and there is a golf school with lessons. Combine it with the nearby spa of Bad Neualbenreuth or a trip to Waldsassen.
Golf42 kmA nine-hole course (also played as 18) right by the Pöhl reservoir in the Vogtland. The three-hole short course is open to players without a licence, so it suits beginners and children; there is also a driving range with covered bays and a clubhouse with a terrace. Afterwards, stroll along the reservoir – in summer people swim here too.
