Glendhu
Glendhu is nearing completion on the shores of Lake Wānaka, due for preview play in early 2027. The course extends across several distinct areas of the property — from lakefront land through to elevated bluffs, terraces and lower riverbed terrain.
The use of fescue grass creates a strong visual contrast between the playing surfaces and the surrounding rough. Elevation and scale are consistent features, with expansive views of Lake Wanaka present throughout.
Early impressions suggest a course that combines visual impact with a sense of freedom in play, making full use of one of the South Island’s most compelling sites.
The 16th green at Glendhu, part of a routing that moves through four distinct landscapes: the lower lakeside ground at Parkins Bay, the bluffs beneath the foothills towards Mount Aspiring, the plateau beyond the main road and the lower riverbed.
Glendhu’s 18 holes form a continuous journey across the property, beginning beside Lake Wānaka before eventually returning to the water for the closing stretch.
The view across Lake Wānaka from Glendhu Bay, with Paddocks Bay to the left and Bishops Bay to the right. A private jetty offers the rare opportunity to arrive by water, setting the tone for a course situated within one of New Zealand golf’s most extraordinary landscapes—a spectacular meeting of alpine water, rugged mountains and open high country.
