Overview
The land of Nepal is gradually gaining popularity among golfers. For the Himalayan golf tour, you can play in three major cities of Nepal: Kathmandu, the capital city of the country; Pokhara, the tourist capital of the country; and Dharan. Gokarna Forest Golf Resort and Royal Nepal Golf Club in Kathmandu, the Himalayan Golf Course in Pokhara, and Nirvana Country Club in Dharan are the options you can choose from. If you want, you can also customize the Golfing in Nepal package in terms of timing and location. Golfing in Kathmandu, Pokhara, and Dharan is an experience, particularly as you get so close to nature. We choose Kathmandu and Pokhara for standard packages for your golfing locations, but it is up to you where you want to play golf in Nepal. To begin with, our trip starts with sightseeing in Kathmandu, followed by golfing in Pokhara and Kathmandu, the most popular golf clubs in Nepal.
The first golf joint established by General Kiran Shumsher in 1971, a cow-gazing land before, was established after he observed this sport during his visit to Scotland. The royal family used to play at this club during their regime. Currently, the club has a 9-hole course, which genClubly organizes over 26 tournaments annually and holds the first-ever Nepal Open Golf Tournament. It is also one of the most cherished courses in South Asia. The golf club is located on the outskirts of Kathmandu.
Located on the northeastern side of the valley, Gokarna was a hunting ground for the former Kings of Nepal. Gleneagles Golf Developments of Scotland designed this 6,755-yard, 72-hole, 18-hole course. It is also considered to be one of the best in Southeast Asia. You will find spotted deer, barking deer, monkeys, and different species of birds to accompany or distract you while you are playing.
Likewise, the Himalayan Golf Club provides a unique golfing experience in South Asia. Furthermore, several golf championships are held in the club. This 6,900-yard, par-73, 18-hole Club Course offers scenic views of the Annapurna Himalayan Range and a river flowing right through the course. Isnโt that a way to enjoy a wonderful tour of Nepal?
The 18-hole Nirvana Country Club perfectly escapes city life to countryside scenes. The golf joint is located in Dharan, on the eastern side of Nepal, which offers a tranquil and scenic environment for golfers.
This Himalayan Golf Course is one of the best in Nepal. It comprises recreational activities and a Pokhara tour as well. You can add other destinations to your golfing experience and book tours accordingly.
Itinerary
After breakfast, we will enjoy golf on an 18-hole course in the Gokarna forest. It is a perfect destination for recreational and professional golfers alike. The only distractions are monkeys, spotted deer, and barking deer that wander freely.
Next, we visit two nearby World Heritage sites.
Boudhanath: Located on the northeastern outskirts of Kathmandu Valley, Boudhanath is the largest stupa in Nepal. Probably built in the 14th century, it is described in various legends.
Pashupatinath Temple: One of Asia’s four most sacred temples, Pashupatinath is dedicated to Lord Shiva. Built-in the 5th century and later renovated by the Malla Kings, the site itself is said to have existed from the beginning of the millennium. You can see rituals taking dips in the holy Bagmati river beside the temple.
Among various golf courses, Gokarna is acclaimed to be the best resort golf course in Nepal. Overall, Gokarna Golf guarantees a day filled with fun and excitement.
There are many things to do in Pokhara, including sightseeing tours and ultra flights for breathtaking Himalayan views. It is also the gateway to many famous treks in Nepal.
In the morning, we attend a yoga class. We learn about asana and yoga fundamentals. After that, we have breakfast and prepare for our domestic flight to Lake City. It’s a 35-minute flight from Kathmandu to the famous lake city. Upon arrival, you will be transferred to your hotel. Later in the day, we will take a guided sightseeing tour of Pokhara.
Phewa Lake and Barahi Temple: Phewa Lake is the second largest lake in Nepal and the most visited one. Tsiteght is a delight, with excellent pubs and restaurants on one side and flanked by the Annapurna range on the other. The lake also houses the crucial Hindu temple Barahi on a small island. The temple is dedicated to lord Vishnu.
In the evening we can also relax on the banks of the lake.
After breakfast, we head out to the Himalayan Gulf Club. Located in a sweeping canyon created by the waters of the Bijayapur River, it is one of the only two 18-hole courses in Nepal. We can spend the rest of the day in the club’s bar or explore the city on our own cube course, which wanders through aerial cliffs. The snowy waters of Bijayapur also provide a spectacular view. Golfing in the Himalayan joint is heaven on earth for golf lovers.
In the morning, we fly back from Pokhara to Kathmandu. We will do additional sightseeing today, including visiting Bhaktapur Durbar Square. Located in the Eastern part of the Kathmandu valley, also known as Bhadgaon or Khwopa, the Durbar square is a compound of Pagodas and Shikhar-style temples grouped around a fifty-five-window palace. This ancient Newar city perfectly represents Kathmandu’s history, art, and medieval lifestyle.
Today is the last day of the trip. An airport representative will drive you to the international airport for your departure.
