On May 19, 2026, the People’s Committee of Ha Tinh province and Ha Tinh Tourism and Sports Services Joint Stock Company held the official groundbreaking ceremony for the Silk Path Ha Tinh Golf Course – a 36-hole championship development backed by a total investment of nearly VND 1,800 billion (approximately USD 70 million). Set across 180 hectares in Thach Xuan commune, this project marks one of the most significant milestones in Vietnam’s golf tourism development in the North Central region.
For anyone tracking the evolution of golf in Southeast Asia, this is a development worth watching closely.
The Silk Path Ha Tinh project is not simply another course addition to Vietnam’s growing roster. Approved under Decision No. 62/QD-UBND by the Ha Tinh Provincial People’s Committee in December 2025, the development encompasses a full 36-hole championship layout across approximately 180 hectares, paired with a dedicated system of accommodation, management, and golfer service facilities.
With an expected completion date of August 2028, the development timeline is ambitious and the investment scale signals a facility built to compete at the highest tier of the region’s golf offerings.
Ha Tinh may not yet carry the name recognition of Da Nang or Hanoi in Vietnam’s golf circuit, but that is precisely what makes this development significant. The province sits in the heart of Vietnam’s North Central region and with Silk Path Ha Tinh on the horizon, it is set to become a new destination on the national golf tourism map.
The project is expected to create a new attraction for high-end tourists, particularly international visitors seeking resort experiences combined with sport while also serving as a driving force for the broader development of Ha Tinh’s accommodation, dining, entertainment, and commercial services.
Government Commitment: A key indicator of long-term viability
The groundbreaking ceremony was attended by senior provincial leadership, including Mr. Nguyen Duy Lam, Secretary of the Ha Tinh Provincial Party Committee, alongside leaders from multiple provincial departments. Standing Vice Chairman Mr. Tran Bau Ha emphasized the project’s designation as one of Ha Tinh’s key socio-economic development initiatives, underscoring the political will behind its successful delivery.
Provincial authorities have called on the investor to mobilize maximum resources (financial, human, and technological) while applying modern sustainable development standards. This commitment to environmental responsibility is increasingly non-negotiable for international golf operators and golfers alike, and positions Silk Path Ha Tinh well for long-term credibility in the global market.
Vietnam’s golf market is in the midst of a structural growth phase, with demand from both domestic and international golfers continuing to climb. Projects like Silk Path Ha Tinh (large-scale, regionally diversified, and backed by an established operator) are exactly what Vietnam needs to strengthen its position as a fully competitive golf destination alongside other Asia nations.
Each new championship facility that opens in an underserved region expands the national golf tourism map, giving international tour operators more reasons to route travel through Vietnam. Once operational, Silk Path Ha Tinh will not only provide golf and resort services but also contribute to diversifying Ha Tinh’s overall tourism product by creating local employment, increasing provincial revenue, and supporting the region’s economic restructuring toward a higher proportion of services.
