The Lost City Country Club Golf Course at Sun City.

Such was the popularity of golf at Sun City Resort that the design of another course was assigned to legendary Gary Player. The mandate was to create something really different! This unusual 18-hole, par 72 course is a cart course, with beautiful landscape variations including mountain, desert and African parkland.

Amongst the many water features are a lake and a hazardous 13th hole. Not for the faint hearted, there are 20 live Nile crocodiles in the water at this green! The stunning Club House, driving range and pro shop are a short walk from the Palace of the Lost City or a two minute shuttle bus ride from the Gary Player Country Club.
