Miklagard Golf
Kløfta
Miklagard Golf is one of Norway’s standout championship golf courses and a superb option for golfers planning an Oslo-area golf holiday. Located at Kløfta, around 20 minutes from Oslo and close to Oslo Airport, it is easy to reach while still feeling like a proper countryside golf escape.
The course was originally designed by Robert Trent Jones Jr. and later developed with Christian Lundin, giving Miklagard a strong international design pedigree. It is an 18-hole championship layout with a big-course feel, generous scale, bold bunkering and fast, well-protected greens. The course also carries a distinctive Norse theme, with holes named after figures from Viking history and mythology, which gives the round a sense of local character rather than feeling like a standard modern layout.
For travelling golfers, Miklagard works especially well because it combines high-quality golf with simple logistics. Lily Country Club sits next to the course, offering accommodation, spa facilities, dining and a relaxed resort-style base after the round. That makes it ideal for a short Norway golf break, a weekend escape, or as part of a longer Scandinavian golf itinerary.
Miklagard can also pair nicely with other Oslo-region courses such as Losby, giving golfers the chance to enjoy different styles of Norwegian golf within the same trip. With its championship reputation, airport access, countryside setting and excellent stay-and-play potential, Miklagard is a smart choice for golfers who want something a little different from the usual European golf holiday. Hashtag Golf Travel can help shape it into a smooth, tailored Norway golf experience.
