Black Mountain Golf Club, Hua Hin 
Peaceful tranquil surroundings, with valley meeting mountain range create the backdrop for the Black Mountain golf course. It is a course ready to please the experienced as well as the average golfer.
The course is set in a valley, just next to the "Black Mountains", which are so named because of the large black rocks set into the mountains, providing a spectacular backdrop to many of the holes.
After what has hopefully been a low score, but if not, at least an unforgettable golfing experience, you can then enjoy the luxurious clubhouse and the fine dining on offer.
Like the big course, the new nine-hole par-3 layout with deep and plentiful bunkering, water on almost every hole, greens protected by steep banks and undulations everywhere make the course a challenge even for tour pros.
