 Carved
out from the erstwhile Dr. Salim Ali City Forest on the foothills
of the Zabarvan Hills overlooking the Dal Lake, The Royal
Springs Golf Club offering panoramic views of the Dal
Lake and pine dotted mountain peaks, is without doubt one of the
most beautiful golf courses in Asia. The undulating fairways and
the challenging greens make it a treat for golfers. The most talked
about hole on the course is the famous par-3 fifth, which offers
a panoramic view of the Dal Lake from an elevated tee.
 The
Royal Springs lies in the high-security Chashmeshahi area, surrounded
by the Sher-e-Kashmir International Convention Centre and a plethora
of quality hotels.The apple, peach and plum trees among heavenly
flower beds, providing a rich hue of colour and aroma, are an
added attraction. The course design calls for strategic play and
would definitely favour those having strong short game.
