Royal Beroun Golf Club
Half an hour southwest of Prague, Royal Beroun is one of the strongest tournament courses in the Czech Republic. Canadian architect Les Furber laid it out on a former military site, opening in 2009, a par 72 of about 6,650 yards that has become a regular host of the European Challenge Tour.

The verdict
Prague has quietly become one of central Europe's best value golf city breaks, and Royal Beroun is the course that gives the trip its tournament credentials. Canadian architect Les Furber, a prolific designer of modern courses across Europe and North America, routed it across a former military site in the rolling country of Central Bohemia, and it opened in 2009. A par 72 of about 6,650 yards, it has the length, the conditioning and the test to host professional golf.
That pedigree is the draw: Royal Beroun is a regular venue for the European Challenge Tour, the rung below the DP World Tour, so a green fee round here puts you on a course the next generation of tour players knows well. For the traveling golfer it is the headline round of a Prague golf weekend, easily reached from the city and paired with the parkland and forest courses nearby.

Designer, opening year, par and yardage verified June 2026 from Royal Beroun Golf Club, Top 100 Golf Courses and leading course databases. The course was designed by Les Furber and opened in 2009, a par 72 of about 6,087 meters, roughly 6,650 yards. Royal Beroun welcomes visiting golfers; green fees move with the season and tournament calendar, so always confirm the current rate and availability directly before booking.
The holes worth the trip
Royal Beroun plays across open, gently rolling Bohemian countryside, and Les Furber gave it the scale and the strategic shaping of a modern championship course. The fairways are generous off the tee but framed by water, bunkering and natural slopes that bring the trouble into play for the longer hitter, while the well sized greens are quick and true when set up for tournament week.
It is a course that rewards a complete game. The par 5s are reachable for the bold, the par 3s are varied in length and demand, and the closing holes give the Challenge Tour field a genuine test under pressure. The conditioning is consistently among the best in the country, which is why the professionals keep coming back.
For the visiting golfer, the pleasure is in playing a course set up to the standard a tour event demands, without the access barriers of a private members club. It is approachable from the tees that suit your game, and memorable for the quality of the turf and the tournament atmosphere.
