Owned by Kiwi entrepreneur Sir Michael Hill, The Hills has evolved from the modest beginnings of a short par 3 course to become a world class championship golf course. Set over 500 acres of land across a glacial valley the layout highlights the dramatic elevation changes and rocky outcrops that are a feature of the area.
This championship layout provides a serious challenge for accomplished players while thoughtful and considerate design means that the golf course is equally enjoyable for golfers of all abilities. The beauty of the courses lakes, waterways and wetland areas is complimented by a stunning array of sculptures made by local and international artists.
