Kobe Pine Woods Golf Club

Kobe Pine Woods Golf Club has operated in the Nagao district of Kobe's Kita-ku ward since 1994, playing a semi-private parkland-style layout with bentgrass greens, a 72.3 rating, and 123 slope, stretching to 6,870 yards from the blue tees. As its name suggests, the course winds through genuinely wooded terrain, giving it a shadier, more sheltered character than some of the more open layouts scattered across the surrounding Kita-ku hills. Managed under the Accordia Golf group, one of Japan's largest golf operators, Kobe Pine Woods benefits from standardized booking and amenity systems shared across that company's national portfolio of courses. Kita-ku's elevated position keeps this stretch of Kobe noticeably cooler in summer than the harbor district below, and the ward has developed into one of the city's most concentrated golf corridors, sitting near the separately located Kita-Kobe Golf Course and Kitarokko Country Club. Having opened in the mid-1990s, the club reflects more contemporary conditioning standards than the ward's older 1960s and 1970s facilities. Golfers looking for a wooded, well-maintained round within Kobe city limits through CoGolfers can consider Kobe Pine Woods Golf Club.
