Golf-Club Arosa
Davos
Set high in the Swiss Alps above the resort town of Arosa, Golf-Club Arosa offers one of Europe’s most distinctive mountain golf experiences. Sitting at around 1,900 metres above sea level, it is regarded as one of the highest 18-hole golf courses in Europe, with wide alpine views, fresh mountain air and a relaxed holiday-resort atmosphere.
The 18-hole course is a par-65 layout, so it is shorter than a standard championship course, but the altitude, slopes and changing mountain conditions keep it interesting. Fairways are shaped by natural alpine terrain, with undulating lies, compact greens and panoramic views across the surrounding peaks. It is not about overpowering the course; it is more about accuracy, club selection and enjoying golf in a properly scenic setting.
Arosa’s original 9-hole course dates back to the 1940s, while the current 18-hole course opened in 2001. Facilities include the Golfhuus restaurant, shop, covered driving range, putting and chipping areas, giving visiting golfers everything needed for a relaxed alpine round.
For Swiss golf holidays, Golf-Club Arosa works beautifully as part of a Graubünden or Davos/Arosa mountain itinerary. It is ideal for golfers who want something scenic and memorable rather than a long, punishing championship test.

About The Area
Davos is one of Switzerland’s most famous Alpine resorts, known for mountain air, big scenery and a year-round outdoor lifestyle. While many people associate it with skiing, Davos is also a strong summer golf base, especially for golfers who want cooler temperatures, dramatic views and a proper mountain-resort feel.
The main venue is Golf Club Davos, an 18-hole course set at around 1,560 metres above sea level in what Davos Klosters describes as Europe’s highest city. The course is par 68 and sits in a natural Alpine landscape, with mountain views, water hazards and a layout that rewards accuracy more than brute force. It’s not the longest course, but the altitude, changing weather and slightly undulating terrain keep things interesting throughout the round. The official Davos Klosters site lists the golf season as May to October, which gives you a clear window for golf-focused trips.
Nearby, Golf Club Klosters adds a useful 9-hole option, also open May to October, with mountain views and a more compact round that works well as an arrival-day or lighter second-course option. Together, Davos and Klosters give golfers a neat Alpine pairing without needing long transfers.
Off the course, Davos is brilliant for active travellers. Lake Davos is popular for swimming, SUP, kayaking, windsurfing and sailing, while the wider Davos Klosters area offers a packed summer programme with dozens of guided activities between June and October. Hiking, mountain biking, spa hotels and scenic rail journeys also make it easy to build a proper mountain holiday around the golf.
For golfers seeking fresh air, Alpine scenery and a polished Swiss resort atmosphere, Davos delivers one of Graubünden’s most enjoyable and accessible mountain golf escapes.
