Jammu Tawi Golf Course

Overview: Jammu Tawi Golf Course is the Sidhra course on the outskirts of Jammu, laid beside the Tawi River and below the Shivalik foothills. Current tourism material describes an 18-hole course spread across a large green site, while current scorecard data identifies a par-72 routing. The landscape is the principal attraction: fairways and greens are framed by river country, hill views and Jammu's historic landmarks, including the direction of Bahu Fort, Amar Mahal and the old Mubarak Mandi complex. It is a natural fit for travellers combining a golf round with Jammu's cultural and mountain gateway.

History: The Sidhra project was inaugurated in 2011, but an early development report from 2015 said that only the first nine holes were then operating and that the second nine remained incomplete. More recent tourism and course records now describe Jammu Tawi as an 18-hole, par-72 course, so this profile treats the present routing as the relevant identity while keeping the earlier construction history visible. The course's story is therefore one of staged public development rather than a simple one-day opening, and its current status should be checked locally before travel because construction and operating phases have changed over time.

Did You Know? The course offers an unusually concentrated view of Jammu's geography and heritage. From the golf property, published tourism material points to the Trikuta mountains, the Tawi valley, Bahu Fort, Amar Mahal and other historic sites. The name “Jammu Tawi” also links the course directly to the river that shapes the setting on its southern edge.
