Kytäjä Golf (South East course)

4-PLUS: Must play course - excellent standard; worthy of 4½ stars.

Est. 2003

Kytäjä Golf: Designed by renowned Canadian golf course architect Tom McBroom, the South East and North West course at Kytäjä Golf are often ranked the No.1 and No.2 best courses in Finland.

The first nine holes of the wonderful South East course meander through a spacious forest landscape with impressive elevation changes. The flatter back-nine includes several holes running directly alongside the Lake Kytäjä shoreline.

The South East layout is generally characterised by good-width fairways, plenty of deep stylish bunkering, and ever-challenging contoured greens.
