Golf Course at Connemara Championship Golf Links
The class of the par-72 layout at Connemara Championship Golf Links is rarely achieved. Measuring 7,229 yards from the back tees, this Atlantic links course offers a stern test even for the most skilled golfers. The invigorating air and breath-taking scenery, the vastness of the last six holes and the shattered rocks that are dotted around the fairways create a spectacle like few others.
Greens set high in the hillside on the 14th and 15th can be unnerving, particularly after playing the most testing short 13th! Take time, however, to marvel at the splendid scenic backdrop of the Twelve Bens, etched against the skyline and Ballyconneely Bay, dusted with pure, white sand.
