Plzen Golf Park - Pilsner Urquell - Czech Republic

Located about 50 miles east of Prague in the Czech Republic, Plzen bleeds beer, or, as the locals say, pivo. Since 2004, it's also had a great (and difficult) golf course in Plzen Golf Park.

About nine miles outside town, the course is short - less than 5,600 meters - but there's enough water and tree-lined holes to warrant saving the beer for after your round. Two holes sure to stick in any golfer's mind are the signature 11th, a par 3 with an island green on Ejpovice Lake, and the 16th, which runs from an elevated tee down to a generous landing zone. It might be the first time you use driver all day.

Following the golf, check out the Pilsner Urquell brewery, which offers daily tours and tastings of the world-famous beer. The brewery is a short walk from the center of Plzen, which oozes Pilsner at every corner, much of it available for a about euro or less per half liter.
