Golf in Democratic Republic of the Congo
Including Golf Club de Lubumbashi. On the map.
The vibe
Golfing is not a part of the visitor experience here, as the country lacks the infrastructure and manicured course culture found in other regions. You will not find any facilities catering to the sport, making it an impossible pursuit for a traveler.

Situated in the mining hub of Lubumbashi, this historic course provides a unique parkland experience in the southern part of the country. It is a social and sporting landmark, known for its strategic layout and role as a hub for the local and visiting business community.
Access. The club is located within the city limits of Lubumbashi. Travelers should arrange access through local contacts or the club's administration office.
Notes. The course is generally pleasant year-round due to the higher elevation of the region, though the rainy season from November to March can affect course conditions.
