However, this is all about planing ahead which is often a good idea when it comes to a golf trip, and the Iceland Open Experience is more than just a golf trip. In fact, it's a full-on sporting adventure that happens over four days in early October.
The golf takes place at Keilir Golf Course; a Scottish style links course, with nine holes playing directly along the ocean, and nine surrounded by lava fields, making it feel like Hawaii and Scotland rolled into one.
In addition to golf, The Iceland Open Experience includes salmon fishing, geothermal swimming, cave exploring, and glacier snowmobiling... that's what I mean by full-on adventure. There are myriad ways to customize your trip the details of which can be found on the Iceland Open site.
To me it looks like the perfect way to mark the end of an Indian Summer.
I was in Iceland years ago and was so impressed by the landscape. I didn't play golf at the time. I think another trip is in order.
ReplyDeleteGolf + Fishing that would be a great vacation in any country!
ReplyDeleteMy cousin is playing in the "Arctic Open" in Akureyri, Iceland this June! They tee off at 10:00 p.m. and it's the so far north the sun never goes down.
ReplyDeleteI'm pretty fascinated about Iceland--and all those northern 'hoods...even though have a southern (France, Italy, Spain) soul. Sounds interesting!
