Connemara Championship Golf Links Galway

At the Edge of Europe on the wild Atlantic coast lies a links course that is a challenge to all who play her. Nestled between the mountains and the sea in the West of Ireland, the Connemara Championship Golf Links is an exhilarating golfing experience. This awesomely picturesque 72 par course with breathtaking views of the Atlantic Ocean was designed by Eddie Hackett and measures over 7,000 yards. Wind and rainbows are the specialty of the house at this 27 hole course which was started in 1973

An invigorating sea breeze is likely to escort you up the 381yard first hole. The second opens the horizon to big sky above the Twelve Ben Mountain Range. Breathtaking views of swans, Connemara Ponies and even a castle will inspire you ...all part of the magic of this adventurous 27 hole championship course. The back nine has been described as "the equal of any in the world." Greens set high in the hillside on the 14th and 15th can be unnerving, particularly after the very short but testing 13th. In the year 2000, an additional nine opened. The first two holes meander along the coast with waves pounding on white sand beaches below. The third and fourth curl inland along a tricky waterway. The next five holes are a climb into rocky rolling hills with stunning mountain and ocean views.
