About
Located at the mouth of Aberdeen Harbour and bordered by the North Sea, Balnagask Golf Course offers a truly stunning setting for golf enthusiasts. With breathtaking views up and down the coast, as well as across the bustling harbour and the city beyond, the course provides an unforgettable experience.
Recognised as one of the best municipal 18-hole courses in Scotland, Balnagask Golf Course was crafted by renowned architects James Braid, Archie Simpson, and the Hawtree family. Nestled within a local conservation area, the course seamlessly blends with the natural coastal landscape, featuring rolling terrain, hidden fairways, elevated tees, and gorse-walled ravines. Additionally, golfers will encounter a range of fascinating elements, including the historic Girdleness Lighthouse and the mediaeval Torry Battery.
To fully appreciate the beauty and challenges of Balnagask Golf Course, visitors are invited to take a virtual flyover tour of the course. This hole-by-hole flythrough allows players to familiarise themselves with each unique aspect of the layout before hitting the greens.
