Building a golf course on lava requires ingenuity. When Keilir was founded, members filled lava crevices by hand to create smooth playing surfaces, a labour of love that took years. The result is a course where nature and sport are inseparable — ancient volcanic rock lines the rough and occasionally intrudes onto the fairway, a reminder that this landscape was shaped by fire.

The lava surrounding Keilir Golf Club is part of the same ancient lava flow system that stretches across the entire Reykjanes Peninsula.
Wind can be strong here — bring an extra club. The lava rough is unforgiving and morning rounds offer the best light for photography.
