About the Golf Course
About the Golf Course
What happens when one of New Zealand’s finest golf architects transforms an ancient riverbed into a championship golf course?
The answer is Tieke Golf Estate—one of the country’s newest and most celebrated golfing destinations. Located just outside Hamilton in the heart of the Waikato, Tieke has rapidly earned recognition as one of New Zealand’s Top 20 golf courses.
Built upon the exposed sands of the original Waikato River, the course delivers an experience unlike anywhere else in New Zealand. Rolling sandy waste areas, fine fescue fairways, and expansive natural contours create an authentic links-style layout despite being more than 50 kilometres from the coast.

Designed by renowned golf architect Brett Thomson together with former PGA Tour professional Phil Tataurangi, Tieke Golf Estate opened to visitors in 2022 following a complete redesign of the former Lochiel Golf Club.
Unlike traditional parkland courses, Tieke embraces a fast and firm style of golf inspired by the great links courses of the world. Golfers are encouraged to play creative bump-and-run shots, using the natural contours and sandy terrain to navigate around strategically positioned bunkers and native vegetation.
Fine fescue playing surfaces, creeping bentgrass greens, and free-draining sandy soils provide exceptional year-round conditioning. Every hole offers a fresh strategic challenge while showcasing spectacular views of the Waikato River valley.
Combined with modern clubhouse facilities, excellent dining, and a peaceful countryside setting, Tieke Golf Estate has quickly established itself as one of New Zealand’s must-play golf experiences.
