One of the
great pleasures of playing golf at Mount Lofty is the wonderful
course environment. Even If you hit a duffed shot, you can at least
take
solace in soaking up the natural beauty that surrounds you.
Cox's Creek meanders through the course, and together with a number of
dams and lakes, the water attracts a wide variety of bird life. You may even
see the odd koala if you are lucky, and our resident white kangaroo can
often be seen near the 7th fairway.
The course
is located in some of the most pristine natural bushland in the
Adelaide Hills. There are some superb examples of native vegetation.
Towering
"Candle Bark Gums", with their distinctive white bark, line many of the
fairways. You may even be lucky enough to see some of the tiny and very
rare native orchids that live in the bushland, especially behind the
first green.
The deciduous trees look fantastic in Autumn, transforming the course
into a
stunning display of colour.
For keen
birdwatchers a Bird list is available. A
