La Paz Country Club (Bolivia)

Sitting on the edge of a canyon and surrounded by the snowcapped Andes Mountains, the La Paz Golf Club is considered the world’s highest golf course. The current 18-hole par 71 course built in 1948, at more than 3,400 meters above sea level will literally take your breath away, with the 12th hole or “Moon Hole” serving as the main feature of the course with its surrounding rocky outcrops. Headache and nausea caused by altitude sickness is a real possibility for those who fail to acclimatize themselves before engaging in a grueling round of golf. However, the thin air also allows you to drive further and straighter and the course has knowledgeable caddies who can guide especially in selecting clubs.
