INTRODUCTION

“Inspired by the beauty of the rainforests, the tropical parkland themed championship layout is crafted in such a way that it blends naturally with its surrounding area of lush greenery.”

More than 5000 trees of various species including mahogany, pulai and allamanda, and shrubs are thoughtfully planted and groomed around the course, lending more character to the layout. Encompassing an area of 142 acres, the enthralling layout winds it way through flat plateau bordered by trees, punctuated by various climbs and drops, making golfing here never a flat experience. Furthermore, IGCC features among the best putting surfaces in the country not only because of their tricky speed but also for their receptive nature.It is small wonder then that those who have tested the layout, fell in love with it and kept coming back for more.
