Lilse Golf & Country

The Witbos Golf Club, with its 13 holes, is located in Noorderwijk not far from Herentals, between Antwerp and Hasselt. The club was founded by soldiers from across the Channel in 1965, when a British base was operational in the region. Many deposits and concrete tracks have been preserved and are located between the existing holes. You will then play golf in the original and spartan setting of a former military base.

The course is an interesting combination of parkland and a links. The water points and the crossing at hole 1 of a barracks are major challenges, which make this course unique.

You can play an 18-hole course there, playing five holes a second time.

"The Engineers Club" is the clubhouse of Witbos. It has a bar and a bistro where you can have a drink after your trip and relax. It also offers a few dishes or a second-hand menu.

Still have energy? The new "Lounge" has just opened its doors. It can accommodate up to 100 people.

Golf Club Witbos means playing golf in a unique setting!

Designed in the 70s, Rinkven was definitively established in 1981, its course being on the current site - a beautifully tranquil 'Kempen' field region, located just 15 km from Antwerp.
History
Paul Rolin, renowned Belgian golfer and golf course architect was responsible for the original development of the courses, which during all these years were developed in three stages until their current state of 36 holes. More recently renowned English architect Hawtree has made significant changes to bring both courses up to modern competition standards.
The 2 golf courses
The two courses are a mixture of forest and park, presenting bodies of water on several holes. A variety of starting positions provide a serious challenge for players of all skill levels. The North Course - 6.091m par 72 - is the longer of the two courses, while the South Course - 5.066m par 71 - has a greater variety of holes, requiring the use of all the clubs of the bag.
Training facilities
Rinkven also offers various training facilities. The driving range consists of a large practice on grass and several covered and lighted stations for those wishing to train in the evening. A new short game practice green measuring no less than 1000 m² is available. It is embellished with bunkers and surroundings, just like the greens on the course, to reproduce training conditions as realistic as possible. Another novelty: a narrow strip of 100 m, the pitching green. Two putting greens complete the offer.

Before or after sport, go to the “37th, Tavern behind the Green” for a drink, a snack, a sandwich or a tasty meal. Rinkven offers a new clubhouse and caddyhouse, modern in style. The Rinkven Golf & Country Club is one of the best golf clubs in Belgium!
