The ultimate goal was to create a golf experience similar to the typical (inland) links courses at Koksijde Golf Ter Hille . A links course is characterised by a rolling landscape, dunes and grasses that require a poor dry soil. High rough and deep bunkers are among the obstacles that need to be overcome. The lack of trees and a location nearby the North Sea, make the never ending wind an important factor. The dehydration and discoloration in dry periods is inherent to a links course. A striking contrast with other types of golf courses (think Augusta) where many trees, dark green fairways, greens and neatly trimmed garden landscapes in the rough determine the image.
