Play 2 European Masters Courses in the Alps

  • Sitting on a lush mountain plateau, the Alpine setting at Crans-sur-Sierre has rightly earned the Swiss resort a reputation as one of the most beautiful golf courses on the planet.
  • Home of the Omega European Masters since 1983, the course offers an amazing golf experience.
  • Current home of the fifth major on the LPGA calendar, the Evian Resort, is guaranteed to wow visitors.
  • Winding its way through mature woodland, the course offers unrivalled viewpoints of Lake Geneva and the Alpine summit feature throughout.

The Alps might be best known as a winter sports playground but come the summer months the mountain range reveals some truly extraordinary golf courses. Nowhere more so than the long-time home of the European Masters, Golf Club Crans-sur-Sierre. Sitting on a lush mountain plateau, the Alpine setting at Crans-sur-Sierre has rightly earned the Swiss resort a reputation as one of the most beautiful golf courses on the planet. The snow-clad Alps and exquisite design by Severiano Ballesteros also ensures Crans-sur-Sierre is one of the most popular stops on the European Tour.

Across the border in France, the current home of the fifth major on the LPGA calendar, the Evian Resort, is also guaranteed to wow visitors. Situated on the lapping shores of Lake Geneva, the Evian Resort is an elegant essay in luxury. Winding its way through mature woodland, the course offers unrivalled viewpoints of Lake Geneva and the Alpine summit feature throughout.

Meanwhile with two luxury hotels at the resort, the 5-star Palace Hôtel Royal and 4-star Hôtel Ermitage, a Michelin-star restaurant and a selection of spas few golfers ever go away disappointed.

Located just 90 minutes from each other, there’s no reason not to enjoy both resorts in one epic golf adventure.

Lofoten Golf Links, the ultimate experience in the North

  • From end of august until the end mid of October you can play golf at daytime and experiecen the Northern Lights at evning and night.
  • Lofoten Links is a spectacular 18-hole links course which is beautifully situated on the island of Gimsøya in Lofoten.
  • Steep mountains, white sandy beaches and small fishing villages with picturesque red shacks are just a part of what the course can offer.
  • From the end of May till the end of July, the sun never sets! Lofoten Links is one of the few courses in the world to offer playing golf in the sun for 24 hours.

Lofoton Links, in Norway, situated just 90 miles from the Arctic Circle, is a truly extraordinary golf resort. Home to a spectacular 18-hole links course, the resort is one of the only places on the planet where you can play golf in the day before sitting back to watch the Northern lights at night. Even better, for three months of the year, the sun never sets on the historic Viking island of Lofoten. Meaning there is plenty of time to get your golf fix.

Residents can relax after their round in the resort’s stunning apartments. Located next to Hov Beach, around 1km from the course itself, the apartments have clear views to the north and the open sea. As a result, guests have a ringside seat for the world’s most famous light show.

The Island itself is equally unique and is famed for its dramatic mountainous scenery and array of birdlife.

Set between the Atlantic and the jagged Lofoten Mountains there are is also a selection of amazing opportunities off the course. These include the chance to ride Icelandic horses, try spectacular hikes or kayaking and, in winter, cross-country skiing.
