GLENVISTA COUNTRY CLUB | 189 Vorster Av, Johannesburg, 2091, Gauteng

The Glenvista Country Club is situated in 189 Vorster Avenue, Glenvista, Johannesbburg, Gauteng a well-watered valley of Johannesburg South. The golf course is surrounded by the imposing backdrop of a steep-faced gorge that cuts through the heart of Klipriversberg range. The dramatic change in geological contours from cliff faces to flood plains make Glenvista Country Club an exciting, unique place to play a round of golf. The Bassons utilized the land for farming and agricultural purposes. Their family cemetery can still be seen alongside the current 18th Hole fairway. The Bassons eventually sold the land to the Glen Anil Development Corporation, a substantial township developer of the 1960s and early 1970's. Snuggled in a valley with gently falling slopes, an unhindered water supply, surrounded by some rather fierce inclines, the land always lent itself to being developed into a prestigious golf course so the corporation decided to go ahead with its plans.
