Frequently Asked Questions
What's the experience like playing the sole golf course in Plessur?
You're in for a treat at Golf Club Domat/Ems, Plessur's only course. It's a fantastic 27-hole facility, offering three distinct 9-hole loops - the "Rhine," "Maissen," and "Brambrüesch" - which means you get variety even with just one club. We love how it blends challenging play with stunning alpine views, making each round feel special and unique to this Swiss valley.
When is the ideal time to visit Plessur for a golf trip?
We always recommend late spring through early autumn - May to October - for the best golf conditions in Plessur. The fairways are lush, the mountain air is crisp, and you'll avoid the heavy snows that can close courses in winter. Plus, the surrounding Swiss landscape is absolutely breathtaking during these months.
Is a golf trip to Plessur a good value, given it only has one course?
While Switzerland isn't known for budget travel, Plessur offers excellent value for the quality of golf and experience. The 27-hole layout at Domat/Ems means you can play multiple rounds without feeling repetitive, and green fees are competitive for a top-tier Swiss course. Consider it an investment in a truly memorable alpine golf adventure.
What non-golf activities do you recommend in the Plessur region?
Since you'll likely only play one course, definitely explore the stunning Grisons region. We suggest hiking or mountain biking on the numerous trails around Chur, Switzerland's oldest city, or taking a scenic train ride like the Bernina Express for unparalleled alpine views. There are also charming local villages and excellent Swiss cuisine to discover.
How far in advance should I book tee times for Plessur's course?
Given it's the only game in town, we strongly advise booking your tee times at Golf Club Domat/Ems at least a few weeks in advance, especially for weekend play during peak season. You'll find their online booking system straightforward, but don't hesitate to call if you have specific requests or need to arrange club rentals.
