courses. So for golf lovers, there is no need to worry that

The Merapi Golf Mount Resort sits 800 meters above sea level
at the foot of Mount Merapi in the Kaliurang valley. Its exact

Next is the 18-hole Adisutjipto golf course, located south of
Adisutjipto airport. Opened in 1972, this was the first golf
course in Yogyakarta province. It partly consists of pine forest,
while the rest of the terrain is flat.

The course is almost entirely on hard ground, except for holes
number two and eight, which are made softer with water. Being
close to the busy airport, some of the holes pose a challenge to
a player's concentration. For reservations call (0274) 560702.
