KEY DESTINATIONS
VICTORIA GOLF CLUB
This is an award winning marvel of a design, home to many pro league championships. The 6’190 m long (par 73) championship golf course is designed by Donald Steel and inaugurated early in 1999. Victoria Golf Club offers a feast for the senses. The course is surrounded by unparallel views of mountains and flowing landscapes. The fairways are rather narrow on a hilly country side. It is also one of the finest 18 hole courses in Asia, as challenging as it is beautiful. A good club house and plenty of attractions such as horse riding and swimming make it a treat for golfers and non-golfers alike.
NUWARA ELIYA GOLF CLUB
Walking distance from the town centre spread over 90 acres, over a hundred years old (built in 1891), the 18 holes golf course is one of Nuwara Eliya’s biggest attractions. It is reputed to be the only Golf Course where all the holes are visible from the Club House or accessible by car.
THE ROYAL COLOMBO GOLF CLUB
This is the oldest Golf Club in Sri Lanka. Established in 1880, it is located in the capital city of Colombo at the Ridgeway Links also known as the Anderson Golf Course. It is home to the Sri Lanka Golf Union, the governing body of Golf in Sri Lanka and maintains links with the Royal and Ancient Golf Club of St. Andrews in Scotland.
