Championship Golf in the Scenic Rim
Nestled in the foothills of Queensland’s stunning Scenic Rim, Kooralbyn Valley offers a unique blend of country charm, resort-style golf, and natural beauty. Home to one of Australia’s most iconic resort courses, this inland retreat is a hidden gem for golfers seeking challenge, serenity, and a true escape from the city grind.
Best Time to Visit
The Kooralbyn region is best enjoyed between March and October, when temperatures are cooler and perfect for full days on the course. Autumn and early spring offer ideal playing conditions with crisp air and lush surrounds.
TIP: Book in May or September for excellent value and fewer crowds — especially during midweek stays.
Travel & Transport
Located around 1.5 hours from Brisbane and the Gold Coast, Kooralbyn is an easy and scenic self-drive destination. The journey takes you through rolling countryside and charming townships, setting the tone for a relaxing golf getaway.
TIP: Add a self-drive vehicle to your package or enquire about private group transfers for a seamless group golf escape.
Booking Tee Times
The star of the region is the Kooralbyn Valley Golf Course, originally designed by Desmond Muirhead and brought back to life with a multi-million-dollar restoration. Known for its dramatic elevation changes, native bushland surrounds, and memorable par 3s, it’s a favourite among Queensland golfing purists.
TIP: Book tee times early for weekends and school holidays. Ask about stay-and-play deals at the Kooralbyn Valley Resort for the full experience — including poolside relaxation, dining, and access to resort amenities.
