Uncovering a Secret GOLF COURSE !

The story of the Black Stork golf resort began in 1984, with the first golfing experience of Ing. Jiři Hruška when he was at a government agreement signing with Ruhrgaz in West Germany. “The document was prepared on a golf course and this was the first time I was involved in this noble game. I fell under it‘s spell! My partner played and I was carrying his clubs”, remembers Jiři Hruška, the president of Lomnica golf club. In an effort to give something to the Tatras he decided to create a golf course in it‘s surroundings. The enthusiasm for the whole project helped overcome many difficult times during it‘s concept and buying the land around Veľká Lomnica. There was some scepticism regarding Jiři Hruška‘s initiative, but importantly he found understanding with a successful co-investor who shared his vision. The courage and belief in success changed the dreams into reality. Golf returned to the Tatras in 1999 with the first practice area. A year later the first 9 holes were opened and four years later the covered driving range was completed. Things progressed so well that during the following six years the 18-hole course was finished, a new hotel was added and a wonderful base for all golf lovers in the Tatras was created. Later came other 9 holes, there are plans for an aqua park and the dreams and visions go even further.

What about the black stork itself that gave the resort it‘s name? The story connected to it goes back to 2003. There were a group of Lomnica club members sitting on the club house veranda at the end of the golf season. They were enjoying the last rays of the autumn sun and one of the relaxing gentlemen had the idea of organizing a senior golf tournament. In an effort to progress the plan, they started thinking of a suitable name for a tournament that would set it apart from the others. From a huge amount of proposals came the Black Stork suggestion. Owing to the nearby marshland area, this rare bird species can often be seen flying over the golf course. During the completion of the course they created the boggy wetland prohibited entry zone area that helps to preserve the habitat of the black stork. Thanks to all these positive circumstances, the black stork became the spirit and welcoming symbol to visitors of the Black Stork resort. All because it didn‘t end up just as an idea for the seniors’ tournament
