There are two golf arear near by Monínec. Golf klub Čertovo břemeno is 2 km by walking or 4 km by car. The other one is Golf resort Konopoště and it is 30 km far away.
Čertovo břemeno Golf Club is one of the most modern and popular golf courses in the Czech Republic. In addition to the eighteen-hole course, there is also a training section. You can also learn golf with an experienced trainer. 2 km from Monínec by foot, or 4 km by car.
This eighteen-hole golf course is blended into the landscape as if it has always been part of it. It threads between hedgerows, with streams running through it and ponds forming watery corners. The countryside is one of undulating hills, so you go up a bit, and then down again. Essentially a proper Czech rural landscape. In total, it isn’t a long golf course, measuring less than five kilometres, and the fairways are next to each other. But it’s a beautiful course and you can play a great game of golf here.
For the second hole, you play across two streams around a pond. You’ll need to hit across a pond on the next hole too. The fourth hole hasn’t got the longest fairway, but it is considered the hardest. The sixth hole is absolutely wonderful, a dogleg right from both sides in broken by water obstacles, and from a downwards sloping teeing ground. Valiant golfers won’t mind the little wood you need to hit the ball over if you want to get a smaller number of strokes. There’s another stream awaiting you on the eighth hole in front of the putting green. And you’ll finish on a par five hole which leads to the club house.
The golf course was opened in 2002 when work was completed on the unusual club house, which looks like a dugout as you enter. There is also a driving range and two practice greens. Since 2009, the course has been extended to have 18 holes. Players without a handicap can also play on the course, but you must be able to keep to the game, rules and ethics of golf. And because of the wonderful location, anyone who comes here, even unintentionally, will love to return. Like the members of Čertovo Břemeno Golf Club, who chose it as their home course.
