Forest of Galtres Golf Club
Skelton Lane, Wigginton, York, North Yorkshire, YO32 2RF
This parkland golf course is situated in the heart of the ancient Forest of Galtres, just two miles from the northern section of the ring road around the historic city of York.
From the seventh green, York Minster is visible to the south, and to the north, 20 miles away, one can see the White Horse of Kilburn on the Hambleton Hills. The rural and peaceful nature of this ancient forest area, with its mature oak trees, has been enhanced by much additional tree planting.
The lakes on the course have been designed to provide water storage for irrigation whilst at the same time coming into play as interesting water hazards. A computer controlled pop-up irrigation system has been installed to serve all tees and greens.
All of the greens have been constructed to the high and demanding specification of the U.S. Golf Association in order to create putting surfaces capable of all year round play. This 'perched water table' concept is a major contributory factor towards the superb quality of the greens providing an even and true putting surface.
