Amber Hills Golf & Resort Hillside Course

Overview: Amber Hills Golf & Resort Hillside Course is a mountain-style routing in Bac Giang Province, northeast of Hanoi. The operational Hillside course is credited to Albanese & Lutzke and is listed at 18 holes, par 72 and 7,203 yards from the black tees. Its identity comes from the natural hill setting: fairways move through rising and falling ground, with changes in elevation influencing both the shape of the approach and the position from which a green can be attacked. The landscape gives the course a more topographical character than a flat city course, while the open views across the surrounding northern Vietnamese countryside provide the visual thread between holes.

History: The course was established in 2017 as Yên Dũng Golf Resort. Amber Hills official material records that the property began operating under the Amber Hills name in April 2022. The Hillside routing is the first completed 18-hole phase of a wider resort plan; the separate Rock Valley phase has been described as a future addition rather than part of the current course. That distinction matters because the available directory name refers specifically to Hillside, not to a combined 36-hole property.

Did You Know? Amber Hills uses two very different landscape ideas in its long-term identity. The operating Hillside course follows the existing contours of the site, while the planned Rock Valley course has been associated with a K.J. Choi signature concept. The result is a resort whose name can refer to a larger development, even though the established playing route is the Hillside course.
