Adventures in Golf: In harmony with nature

The Koʻolau Golf Club on Oahu, Hawaii, is an adventurer’s paradise and presents even experienced golfers with a unique challenge.

This time in the Adventures in Golf series, Erik Anders Lang is looking for the world’s most difficult golf course and has found it in Hawaii. With a slope rating of 155, the Koʻolau Golf Club is one of the most difficult courses in the world. Unofficially, the rating is 162, but the scale officially only goes up to 155. Embedded in the impressive Koʻolau Range, it offers spectacular views in challenging terrain. With narrow fairways, steep slopes and natural greens, it demands both physical endurance and mental strength. Dealing with the many lost balls and navigating through the untamed nature of Hawaii make golfing here a spiritual adventure.
