Our Method
We have selected 18-hole courses located within a maximum of 60 km as the crow flies from downtown Munich: courses open to visitors (the conditions—days, handicap, season—are specified for each one). The ranking is the average of their positions in two national rankings: Top100GolfCourses (Top 70 Germany, 2023 edition) and Golf Magazin (“Die 75 besten Plätze Deutschlands,” October 2024); a course not included in a ranking is assigned the last place plus ten. Distances calculated using OpenStreetMap coordinates. Green fees are listed only if they are published on the golf course’s official website (as of November 10, 2026).
