    Overview

    The Peter Matkovich-designed course at Elements Private Golf Reserve opened in 2005 to worldwide acclaim. Elements Reserve is located to the North of Johannesburg in the country’s Bushveld region, situated among red cliffs, sweeping grass plains, towering mountains, and dense native trees. The parkland-style layout was designed to coexist with the natural environment and features pristine and vibrant green fairways with subtle undulations and greens protected by dense thickets of vegetation. The front nine is highlighted by the downhill par-3 ninth, played from an elevated tee box to a double green protected by water short and bunkers long. The back nine features multiple long par-5s, the most famous being the reachable 18th protected by water down the left and a series of bunkers on the right. The course also features a modern two-story elevated clubhouse with panoramic views embodying the privacy and tranquility of the reserve.
