Design and Accessibility

Designed by Mr. Ron M. Garl and Mr. Pirapon Nanatra, Alpine Golf Resort Chiang Mai presents a resort-style layout. This approach typically prioritises playability for a range of handicaps, often featuring well-maintained grounds and an integration with wider amenities. The course is situated 25 kilometres east of Chiang Mai city, offering a setting removed from the urban centre.

Its proximity to Chiang Mai International Airport, with a travel time of approximately 30 minutes, positions it as a convenient option for golfers arriving or departing from the region.

Before you book

Alpine sits outside Chiang Mai, in a part of Thailand that plays best in the cool season from November to February — the same months the city fills for its festivals, so book both together.

Rates on this page were checked in August 2026; confirm the current figure with the club, and ask whether the caddie fee is separate. We will check these figures again before the next dry season and date them here when we do.
