About Brautarholt Golf Club
Brautarholt Golf Club is a classic 18-hole, par 70 course on the Kjalarnes peninsula, roughly 30 minutes north of central Reykjavík. The course sits along the waterfront with views over the Faxaflói bay, combining open coastal terrain with natural elevation changes. Founded in 1958, it is one of Iceland's established clubs and popular with both visitors and locals. Online tee-time booking is available through Golfscape.
Story
Brautarholt has long been the everyman's golf course of Reykjavík — the place where school trips learn to swing a club, where office workers sneak out for a twilight nine, and where first-timers discover that golf in Iceland is rather different from golf anywhere else. The course is short enough to walk in an hour, but compelling enough that most players end up going round twice.
Why Visit

Visitor Tip
Ideal for beginners or a quick 9-hole round — walking distance from many Reykjavík hotels and open late into the evening in summer thanks to the midnight sun.
