The Dhoho Surya Golf Course is characterized by dramatic elevation changes that showcase the mountainous terrain while creating strategic golf challenges. The routing takes full advantage of natural valleys to create meandering water features that interact with golf strategy throughout the layout.
The course’s most distinctive feature is an abandoned quarry that frames two of the most memorable holes:
16th Hole: Par-three utilizing the quarry as dramatic backdrop and strategic hazard
17th Hole: Driveable par-four offering risk-reward decisions with quarry interactions
These signature holes provide both visual drama and strategic interest, with the quarry’s rugged rock faces creating unforgettable golf moments.

Curley-Wagner Golf Design applied their expertise in mountain course architecture to create a layout that respects natural topography while providing strategic variety for all skill levels.
The course design emphasizes both challenge and accessibility, with generously wide fairways that welcome players of varying skill levels while undulating greens demand precise approach shots. Natural valleys are cleverly utilized to create water features that blend seamlessly into the landscape, and dramatic elevation changes are integrated into hole layouts to add excitement and variety. Throughout the design, there is a careful balance between visual beauty and playability, ensuring that the course is as enjoyable to look at as it is to play.
The course routing maximizes mountain views while creating natural flow through varying terrain, ensuring each hole offers distinct character and challenges.
With construction completed and turf maturing, Dhoho Surya Golf Course positions Kediri for sustained golf tourism growth. The course’s unique mountain setting, signature quarry holes, and exceptional drainage ensuring year-round playability create compelling reasons for golfers to visit East Java’s newest championship facility.
As Indonesian golf continues expanding beyond traditional hubs, courses like Dhoho Surya demonstrate the archipelago’s diverse golf destination potential from tropical beaches to mountain foothills, offering varied experiences for domestic and international golf tourists.
