| 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.
