Overview

Brautarholt Golf is one of Iceland’s most breathtaking and distinctive golf experiences, set along the rugged coastline just 20 minutes outside Reykjavík. Consistently ranked among the world’s top short courses, it offers a dramatic 12-hole layout carved into cliffs, lava formations, and seaside slopes overlooking the Atlantic. The course combines natural beauty with strategic design, rewarding accuracy over distance and delivering panoramic views on nearly every shot. Golfers can play the 12-hole loop as designed or repeat the opening nine to create a full 18-hole round, making it both flexible and unforgettable for visiting groups.
