Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly is "Boerengolf" and how is it different from regular golf at Green Valley?
Boerengolf at Green Valley is a fantastic, laid-back twist on golf, played with a larger ball and a wooden club on actual farm fields. You'll navigate natural obstacles like ditches and cow pastures, making for a truly unique and often hilarious experience compared to a manicured traditional course. It's less about precision and more about enjoying the Belgian countryside with friends.
What's the best time of year to play at Green Valley Boerengolf, and what should I wear?
We highly recommend visiting Green Valley Boerengolf from late spring through early autumn for the best weather, typically May to September. You'll be walking through fields, so sturdy, comfortable shoes - preferably ones you don't mind getting a little muddy - are essential. Dress in layers, as Belgian weather can be unpredictable, and bring a rain jacket just in case.
Is Green Valley Boerengolf suitable for families or beginners, or is it more for experienced golfers?
Absolutely, Green Valley Boerengolf is perfect for families and beginners; it's designed for fun, not serious competition. The larger ball and simpler clubs make it incredibly accessible for all ages and skill levels, so don't worry if you've never swung a club before. It's a fantastic way to introduce kids to a golf-like game in a relaxed, outdoor setting.

Beyond the charming course, Green Valley Boerengolf offers a cozy clubhouse where you can grab a refreshing drink or a local snack after your round. We love unwinding there and sharing stories from the course. Sometimes they even have other farm-related activities or local produce available, adding to the authentic Belgian farm experience.
