Beckenbauer Golf Course

Few golf courses carry as personal a stamp as this one. Beckenbauer Golf Course in the Bavarian border region takes its name from Franz Beckenbauer, the footballing legend who grew up in Bavaria and became one of the most celebrated figures in German sport. His involvement lent the project a profile unusual for this quiet corner of southeastern Germany, and the course has attracted visitors drawn as much by the name as by the golf itself.

The setting is the gentle, rolling countryside of the Inn valley near the Austrian border — a landscape of meadows, woodlands, and small rivers that gives the course a pastoral, unhurried quality. This part of Lower Bavaria sees genuine seasons, which means firm, fast conditions in summer and genuine dormancy in winter, and the natural terrain shapes the routing in ways that keep the land visible rather than overwhelmed by design.

As a resort destination, Beckenbauer Golf Course serves the broader Bad Griesbach resort complex, one of the most ambitious golf developments in German-speaking Europe, offering visitors a range of courses within easy reach of one another.
