Miklagard Golf Club
Miklagard is a championship golf course that, in 2020, was completely reimagined. A new routing and holes have lifted the original Trent Jones Junior layout to another level, making Miklagard one of the most eagerly anticipated renovations in Europe.
The course itself and its onsite facilities make the complex an ideal tournament host venue, all within a short drive of Oslo-Gardermoen Airport.

Kongsvinger Golf Club
Arguably the most beautiful forest golf course in the Nordic countries and consistently in the top 3 best golf courses in Norway. Each hole is lined with tall firs – not too wide, not too narrow. The scale of this Peter Nordwall design works perfectly, with large greens and even larger bunkers complemented by rolling slopes and swells throughout the fairways.
