| Established in 1893,
Abernethy Golf Club is located on the B970 road
between Grantown on Spey and Coylumbridge, just
north of Nethybridge.
On most days, it is possible to "walk
on", without a reserved tee time. Families
are welcome and handicap certificates are not
required. For those without clubs we have a
few sets for hire.
Abernethy is a traditional
Highland golf course, built on natural moorland,
and surrounded by majestic pine trees.
The course is suitable for golfers
of all standards. Casual visitors will cope
pefectly well with the friendly course layout
while low handicappers will need to bring their
very best short game to score well.
The clubhouse (unlicensed) serves
snacks, home baking and refreshments.
Situated in the Cairngorms National
Park, Abernethy golf course is home to many
wildlife species. Red squirrels abound in the
forest bordering the fairways and curlews nest
between the seventh and eighth holes. Golfers
may even glimpse an osprey flying over the course
carrying a fish to feed its young at the famous
Loch Garten nest - a rare birdie indeed.
