PHUKET, THAILAND, June 08, 2011 (Press-News.org) This golf tournament is anything but typical. It is set amid the alpine landscape between Riggelberg and Rotenboden in the Gornergrat area. This area is located between 2,500 and 2,800 metres above sea level, adding an additional challenge for those who wish to join in the fun.
This year marks the 20th anniversary of the Matterhorn Eagle Tournament. The 9-hole golf course is fit perfectly into the alpine landscape, with the majestic Matterhorn in constant view. Play is in the typical Scottish style, which means there are no manicured lawns or fairways in sight. Instead, golfers can expect to find themselves faced with a variety of obstacles such as cliffs, uneven grassy areas, rocks and marmot apartments. Even though the holes are a large 75 cm, putting is still a huge challenge. The 20th Matterhorn Eagle Tournament provides enjoyment for both players and spectators alike.
For those arriving from out of town it is recommended that hotels in Zermatt be booked well in advance.
There are few places in the world that can offer golf with such challenging charm as Zermatt, Switzerland. The town is hidden in a high valley at 1,682 metres and is surrounded by beautiful Swiss scenery. The town remains natural and does not allow gas-burning vehicles, making this a pristine environment to enjoy some of the most unique golf in the world.
