Leopard Creek Country Club
South Africa
Leopard Creek Country Club overview
Tucked away on the edge of Kruger National Park, Leopard Creek Golf Club is one of those rare places where golf and nature come together in the most unforgettable way. Designed by Gary Player, the course makes the most of its surroundings, with fairways that weave through native bush, sparkling water features, and views that constantly remind you you’re in the heart of wild South Africa.
Ranked as the #2 best golf course in South Africa by Top 100 Golf Courses, Leopard Creek has a reputation for immaculate conditions and a layout that challenges without ever losing its sense of place. One moment you’re lining up a drive, the next you’re watching wildlife on the horizon - it’s as much a safari as it is a round of golf.
Signature Holes
The standout is the 13th hole, a spectacular par 5 that runs alongside the Crocodile River. From the green, perched high above the water, you can look straight into Kruger National Park. It’s not unusual to see elephants, hippos, or even crocodiles while you play - a reminder that this is no ordinary golf course.
Post Round
Leopard Creek isn’t just a bucket-list course for traveling golfers; it’s also home to the Alfred Dunhill Championship, one of the most popular events on the DP World Tour. The blend of world-class golf and incredible wildlife makes it unlike anywhere else in the game.
