Zhailjau Golf Resort

Opened in 2006, the resort offers a world-class golfing experience set against the spectacular backdrop of the snow-capped Tian Shan mountains. The combination of pristine nature and luxury facilities makes it a true haven for golf enthusiasts.

The Championship Course

Designed by the iconic Arnold Palmer Design Company, the 18-hole, par-72 championship course stretches over 7,200 yards. It blends precision sport with dramatic alpine scenery. The rolling parkland layout features wide fairways of Kentucky Blue Grass, impeccably maintained Pencross Bent grass greens, and strategic water hazards, including five artificial lakes and cascading mountain streams. The course has been a recurring host of the Kazakhstan Open on the European Challenge Tour, a testament to its championship caliber and exceptional condition.
