Course of the Month - Kraggenburg, Netherlands.

There's a linksland feel to the Kraggenburg course, situated in the north east Polder area of the Netherlands, in Flevoland. Kraggenburg Pitch and Putt course is part of the 48 hectare Netl Park complex, an island between sea and polder. The 43 metre sixth is the shortest hole on the course. A bunker back right is the principal hazard. The 9th at 47 metres is not long but it's a tricky assignment with water behind the green, which is also heavily protected by bunkers.

The 50 metre 10th is played over a stream. After a 55 metre pitch, the 13th green is guarded by 3 bunkers.

Kraggenburg has a testing finish. Most difficult hole on the course is arguably No. 16, which measures 69 metres and has a huge gaping front bunker. The 48 metre 17th is tree lined left of the fairway and there's another huge front bunker. 3 bunkers front the 46 metre home hole.

Green fees per round are EUR16.00. Adjacent to the Kraggenburg course, the Netl Park restaurant offers facilities for dining, family parties, weddings, live music and events.
