Wakkanai Country Club

Wakkanai Country Club is a hillside course set on elevated ground overlooking Wakkanai Airport, spreading its 18 holes across gently rolling terrain in northern Hokkaido Prefecture. The layout makes full use of the natural contours of the land, producing subtle undulations that affect ball position on nearly every shot. The back nine opens with a gentle downhill 10th, followed by a carry over water at the 11th and a valley crossing at the 16th — each hole offering a distinct challenge. Trees are sparse throughout, leaving the course open to the wind. Checking wind direction before each shot is essential here, as conditions can shift and influence club selection significantly.
