Reviewed: Played on:Feb 11, 2017 Played the course:once

Pros:

-Located close to the city-center of Bremen, by the river "Weser", this course has a lot to offer.
-First off, the location is quite beautiful and has some scenic attractions.
#15 would be a signature hole with beautiful views on the riverbank. This is also the only hole where water could come in play.

-A good variety of shots is required. With tight fairways, narrow tree-passages, mandos and OB's this course calls for diversity in your game. (In my eyes #13 is meant to be a thumber/tomahawk shot e.g..)
Additionally, there where some shots that required a bigger arm.

-In my eyes, this course is perfectly designed to work for intermediate, advanced and pros alike.
-The layout was good and i liked the flow. There were some short walks between certain holes, but nothing to complain about.
-Basktes were in great condition, such as the tees. There is a course-map at #1.
-There is a nice "wine-glass-shaped" putting-basket between the parking lot and the first hole.

Cons:

-Navigating was difficult for the first time.
Sadly, there are no teesigns and you have to look for markers on the ground, which
werent always easy to find.
-Not all holes had concrete tees.
-The holes #10-13 are placed slightly "tight" together.
It's not a real Con, but i found the design to be a bit odd?!

-The fairways of #5 and #17 cross. There are a few other spots where you might have to look out/wait for other players.
-You might need a spotter, especially in summer, to check the walkways for pedestrians.
Traffic can occur, but shouldt be a big problem.

Other Thoughts:

"Weser-Ufer-Park" is the best know/favourite course
around Bremen for good reason.
It is a challenging yet fair and solvable course.
Make sure you get a course-map/take a picture of it.
Definitely recommendable for players at any skill-level.

Very nice overall 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Jun 15, 2014 Played the course:5+ times

Pros:

- The holes demand different shot types, from long bombs, to big right and left curves, a tunnel shot e.g.
- The area that the course is on doesn't have too many options to work with trees, but basically every single tree and bush that is there was used to create a really nice layout
- You don't have to walk very far from hole to hole. The furthest might be 50 m, except for that it's mostly 20 m which really hepls the flow of the course
- Hole 15 alone is worth playing. The basket sits just a couple of meters away from the river Weser and it makes for a really nice view at your putt. You usually don't have to fear for losing your disc in the river, but still it just looks awesome

Cons:

- the grass isn't cut too often, which will really lower the fun level to me. Although you will find your disc again fairly easy in 90 % of the area (if you look where it goes), I don't like high grass for a course. It's not the designer's fault, but it's just that way...(Plus I have allergies, which makes it even worse for me... ;-) )
- Although I stated that they really made the best out of the area, it just doesn't give you the best opportunities for a discgolf course..just too much open area and not enough trees to work with is my opinion

Other Thoughts:

With it being the only "proper course" in the area it is certainly worth playing, no matter if you're beginner or an advanced player.

Weseruferpark 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Sep 6, 2012 Played the course:2-4 times

Pros:

The disc golf course of Weseruferpark is located on the river bank of the river Weser. I met Simon Lizotte, the European champ and he said the course was built by his father. We had bicycles with us when we were in Bremen with a friend of mine but I believe there's a tram going pretty close so it's easily accessible.
Pretty much all the fairways are meadowy, but only light vegetation so it's very difficult to lose your disc. Many of the baskets are located on a clear area surrounded by trees and shrubs, which I really liked. On most of the holes you have quite a lot of space when driving but you have to accurate when you are approaching to the basket. On a couple of long holes you can really throw as hard as you can and not be afraid of losing your disc because there is so much open space. There are also a few trickier holes where you have to drive with good accuracy, trying to get through some trees and branches. Some out of bounds holes too.
I really enjoyed playing here, it wasn't very crowded so you didn't have to wait for your turn, the baskets were quality baskets, nice teepads, a proper outlay and info about the course on the first hole and well varied holes.
It isn't a very difficult course but there's enough variation to keep you interested throughout the course and enjoy playing. The best course I have played so far, there's even a small beach right next to the course where you can relax after a round. I highly recommend.

Cons:

The only bad thing, in my opinion, about the course is that on some holes you may have to wait for people who are passing by/walking around the park. We didn't see any people walking on the course randomly but there are some paths going close to some holes so you have to be careful.

Other Thoughts:

I'll be going to Bremen in a couple of weeks time so I'll get a chance to play there again, I'm very excited about that! See if I can beat my record (playing with 3 discs) of -2.
