Miklagard Golf

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

Est. 2001

Miklagard Golf is home to one of the top championship golf courses in Norway. Here you'll experience a Robert Trent Jones II designed tournament course, capable of thoroughly testing amateurs and professionals alike.

Miklagard's big dimension layout roams across predominantly open and pleasantly undulating parkland terrain. Excellent presentation and plenty of rolling elevation change underpins the modern stadium-style layout. Plenty of length from the tips will test the longest hitters.

An attractive variety of skilfully crafted and challenging holes ensures both a memorable and challenging round, with an attractive collection of straightaway and doglegging holes in the mix. The bunkering is generally deep and plentiful, with another significant test provided by the large, fast and undulating greens.

Stay&Play at Miklagard: luxury onsite accommodation available, see Where2Stay section below.

Did you know?

Miklagard Golf is located close to the town of Kløfta in Ullensaker municipality, an area with strong historical traditions dating back to the Viking Age. The name Miklagard itself, is taken from the Viking name for Istanbul. When Vikings sailed into the Golden Horn, in what was then called Constantinople, they marvelled at the huge city walls facing them. The city was the largest the Vikings had encountered, and was aptly named Miklagard, "the Great City".

All the holes on Miklagard Golf are named after Norse gods and kings. The signage, buildings and even aspects of the course are also inspired by Norse history.

Published ranking

Norway's 2nd best course (Golf Digest, 2022).
Continental Europe's 162nd best course (Golf World, 2025).
