The Royal Hobart Golf Course features broad sweeping fairways, large and exceedingly fast greens and 80 strategically placed bunkers. Requiring thought and concentration, the picturesque surroundings of the bushland land to a tranquill, relaxing atmosphere that enables the golfer to focus on the game. Designed by H.V.Morcom the 6,115-metre par-72 championship course is often referred to as one of the finest in the country.
The Royal Hobart has hosted many tournaments, including the 1971 Australian open,1990 Australian Ladies Championship, and the 1991 Tasmanian Open.
The two-storey clubhouse is equipped with full bar, catering facilities, and a pro shop. The club is for members and affiliated members, with prior arrangement with the club’s office.

i really enjoy playing at RHGC. unpretentious and welcoming club with a terrific course which would rate much higher if on the mainland, particularly given its always outstanding conditioning. it’s a slightly old fashioned design, but it remains very relevant despite technology due to well placed greenside bunkering and lush, run impeding fairways. a really enjoyable golf course – the back 9 is particularly strong. Strongly encourage anyone going to Hobart to pack the clubs. RHGC and Tasmania would make a strong start to any south to north tasmanian golf trip finishing in Bridport. highly recommended.
