Architecture

Sandy soil, heather, pines and exposed waste-like areas should create strategic width and changing lies rather than narrow corridors. Woodland corridors make tee position and shot shape important, while the most effective holes use elevation and diagonals instead of relying only on trees.

The strongest holes offer a playable conservative route while rewarding the golfer who accepts a more demanding line for a clearer approach. Belgian seasonal conditions can shift the emphasis from aerial carry in softer periods to bounce, run and position when the turf becomes firmer.

The course in detail

Firmness, moisture, slope and vegetation alter bounce, stance and the practical width of each landing area over the season. Daily conditions can move the emphasis from aerial carry to controlled run, making the same routing materially different after rain, wind or prolonged dry weather.

At Kempense Golf Club, that interaction remains legible across the full round.

The club

Learn more

History

The Antwerp region mixes sandy ground, pine and deciduous woodland, historic estates and relatively flat terrain suited to firm, strategic golf. Those stages remain visible in the mature landscape and explain why the present course combines inherited character with contemporary playing standards.

The club’s chronology is meaningful because it still shapes the routing, the presentation of the greens and the social rhythm around the round.

Club experience

Because operational details change, maintenance dates, vehicle use and guest requirements are best checked directly when the round is arranged.

Geography and setting

Relief, vegetation, exposure and the wider regional landscape influence sightlines and the way distance is perceived throughout Championship Course. The setting also connects the golf to Antwerp, so the course never feels interchangeable with a standard layout on neutral ground. Changes of direction repeatedly reset exposure and visibility, preventing a single landscape effect from becoming repetitive.
