Karori Golf Club

Karori Golf Club The first golf club in the world to have Kiwi released on the course. The course rewards accuracy and boasts several holes that are quite special in character.

Set in the scenic Makara hills just 15 minutes from the coolest little capital in the world. A challenging and beautiful course and a sanctuary to some of New Zealand's rarest wildlife Golf in a Country Setting Close to the City

Karori Golf Club is located close to the city but in an idyllic country setting. All holes are tree-lined and two stony streams meander across or beside all but four hole

s. Native bush on the neighbouring hills and much of the course boundary gives Karori a location that is typically rural New Zealand. There are no crowds, no traffic and the only reminder of technology is the presence of giant wind turbines that populate the seaward side of the hills to the west. If you have not played Karori recently you will be impressed by the challenge that awaits you. Different and Distinctive Course

Karori is quite different from all other courses in the Wellington region. The remaining holes reward risk-takers or may require a long accurate drive. Several holes play to elevated greens – making otherwise straightforward approaches significantly more challenging. The greens are consistent and comparatively quick. They can appear reasonably flat, but beware, the borrow can be underestimated. Expect challenging pin placements that can result in some tricky downhill putts
