Keilir Golf Course is a links golf course placed in Hafnarfjordur town, 15 minutes from downtown Reykjavik.
There is a vast difference between the front nine and the back nine. The front nine is surrounded by lava, and the back nine is placed on a small peninsula at the entrance into the Hafnarfjordur harbor, with spectacular views to Snaefellsjokull glacier and the Alftanes peninsula.
Keilir Golf Course is about skill and accuracy over power and distance, particularly when dealing with the lava field in the front nine!
Golf World Magazine says:
A front nine among a lava field is wonderful but punishing – miss the fairway and your ball is bouncing around for fun. Some of those holes are played alongside the sea to great effect. The back nine plays around
the bay with some elevated tee shots but a drop-off in quality.
