Tee Off Under the Midnight Sun: Arctic Golf Finland Guide

Ready for a golfing experience unlike any other? Welcome to Arctic Golf Finland, where you can tee off under the magical glow of the midnight sun or the enchanting Northern Lights! Forget manicured greens and predictable weather; here, you'll find a unique course carved into the stunning Lapland landscape, offering a truly unforgettable golfing adventure. Whether you're a seasoned pro or a complete beginner, Arctic Golf promises a fun and challenging experience surrounded by breathtaking natural beauty. Arctic Golf isn't just about the game; it's about embracing the Arctic environment. The course is designed to blend seamlessly with the surrounding nature, utilizing the natural terrain and vegetation. Expect uneven lies, challenging bunkers made of snow (in winter!), and stunning views of the Kemijoki River. While there isn't a long history to recount, the concept itself is relatively new, born from a desire to offer a unique and memorable activity in the heart of Lapland. The main activity, of course, is golf! But don't expect a traditional 18-hole course. Arctic Golf often features a smaller number of holes, focusing on quality and the overall experience. You can rent clubs and balls on-site, and lessons are often available for beginners. Beyond golf, many operators offer other Arctic activities like snowmobiling, reindeer sledding, and Northern Lights viewing tours, making it easy to combine your golfing adventure with other Lapland experiences. While there isn't a specific culinary tradition tied directly to Arctic Golf, many nearby restaurants offer traditional Lappish cuisine, such as reindeer stew and salmon cooked over an open fire.
