Golfclub Lechfeld is one of the most flexible golf courses in the Augsburg area — family-friendly, well-maintained and ideal for golfers who want to play regularly and without fuss.
Location & Character
Located just a few minutes south of Augsburg, the course scores above all with its excellent accessibility — even by tram. The facility is flat, open and deliberately kept uncomplicated, with a clear focus on playability and everyday usability.
Course Overview
GC Lechfeld is a 9-hole course that offers exceptional flexibility through its unique layout across both sides of the B17 road.
Players can individually choose whether to play just certain hole combinations (3, 5 or 7 holes) or a full round — a genuine unique selling point.
Playing Experience
The course is beginner-friendly but by no means boring.
Narrower fairways and clearly defined playing lanes demand precise play. Those who play cleanly are rewarded — those who spray will quickly face out-of-bounds or difficult lies.
The greens are true, consistent and easy to read without being overly complex.
Course Maintenance & Condition
Maintenance is consistently good.
Fairways are reliably in good condition, greens run consistently and show only slight variations during extreme weather conditions. Overall a very solid level.
Practice Facilities & Infrastructure
The training facilities are functional, with clear strengths and weaknesses:
Major strength: very good putting green
Indoor golf facility for year-round training
Driving range available, but too short for longer clubs
Short game area present, but limited
Club Life & Atmosphere
The club thrives on its family-friendly, relaxed atmosphere.
The clubhouse is small but charming, with two sun terraces that can be used optimally depending on the time of day.
Dining is generally good, though it suffers from frequently changing operators.
Who Is It For
Perfect for:
Beginners and casual golfers
Players from the Augsburg area
Golfers with limited time (short round concept)
Training and regular play
Less suitable for:
Low handicaps looking for long, challenging courses
Players who prefer wide, open layouts
Felix Proske's Verdict
Golfclub Lechfeld is an honest, functioning golf course with clear strengths in everyday use. The combination of flexibility, maintenance and accessibility makes it an ideal training and home course.
Anyone wanting to play regularly is in exactly the right place — anyone seeking maximum challenge, rather not.
Conclusion
Golfclub Lechfeld is an honest, well-maintained course with high flexibility. Perfect for spontaneous rounds and training — less suited for ambitious low-handicap players.
