Golf is not just a new Olympic sport, it is a special culture, with many traditions and rules. In Kazakhstan, the first golf club was opened in 1995 in Almaty. To date, according to the Golf Federation, there are seven golf clubs in the country. Five of them meet international standards.


Due to the warm climate, the most comfortable conditions for golfing are in Almaty and Turkestan regions. The playing season here lasts up to ten months a year. It is not surprising that two golf clubs are located in Almaty at once.


Golf Club Nurtau


Nurtau Almaty Golf Club is the first golf club in Kazakhstan and Central Asia, founded in 1995. It is located in the most beautiful foothills of the Zailiysky Alatau. The first nine courses of the golf resort with sand traps of different depths and water obstacles were designed in 1995 by the Japanese architect Saito. Later, by 2004, the project received nine more courses and became a full-fledged 18-hole Kazakh golf resort that meets international standards. Over time, a spacious club house, a two-level driving range (practice field), a 9-hole practice green and a green for practicing a short game appeared. There is also a clubhouse with a VIP room, a bar and a restaurant.


Golf club "Zhailau"


Golf resort "Zhailau" is recognized as one of the best in the CIS. In addition to the 18-hole championship course, Zhailau has its own driving range (practice field) and three putting greens (a golf course area with short cut grass). There are five artificial lakes, man-made bubbling streams, more than fifteen thousand trees have been planted on an area of 82 hectares. A unique view of the mountains from any point of the golf resort leaves a lot of positive emotions for both professionals and amateurs.
