Aboyne Golf Club

A long-established part of the Aberdeenshire landscape, Aboyne is a great option for those looking for a challenging test of golf.

Sitting in a part of the world home to lots of great golf, Aboyne is an inland test that features a very difficult opening and closing hole. Both of these are par-3s that measure over 230 yards on the card. The first hole plays downhill to a small green, while the 18th plays uphill to a large, sloping putting surface.

Between both these holes, is some tough, often tight holes, with plenty trees lining the fairways, as well as Aboyne Loch coming into play on the back nine.

Martin Hawtree added new holes here in the 1990s, to complete a layout that has remained almost the same since 1913.
