Frequently Asked Questions

When is the best time to plan a golf trip to Múlaþing, considering Iceland's weather?

You'll find the prime golf season in Múlaþing, much like the rest of Iceland, is short and sweet, typically from late May through early September. We recommend aiming for July or August for the most consistent weather and the incredible experience of playing under the midnight sun. Be prepared for all four seasons in one day, though-pack layers!

What makes the golf courses in Múlaþing unique compared to other Icelandic regions or international courses?

Múlaþing's courses offer a truly raw, authentic Icelandic golf experience, often carved directly from the dramatic volcanic landscape with stunning fjord views. Unlike more manicured resorts, you'll encounter a rugged beauty here, where the wind is often your toughest opponent and the sheep might be your only gallery. It's less about luxury and more about the pure, elemental joy of the game in an unforgettable setting.

Are the golf courses in Múlaþing suitable for all skill levels, or are they particularly challenging?

While the Múlaþing courses might not be championship length, the natural elements-especially the wind and undulating terrain-present a unique challenge that keeps even seasoned golfers on their toes. Beginners will still find them incredibly enjoyable for the sheer scenery and relaxed atmosphere, but don't expect easy pars; you'll need to think your way around these links. We always recommend embracing the adventure, regardless of your handicap.

What practical advice do you have for combining a golf trip with exploring the Múlaþing region?

Beyond the greens, Múlaþing is a treasure trove of Eastfjords beauty, and we highly recommend renting a car to explore at your own pace. Make sure to visit Seyðisfjörður for its charming arts scene and colorful houses, or hike to Hengifoss waterfall for breathtaking views. Plan your golf rounds for the long daylight hours, leaving plenty of time for scenic drives and discovering local hot springs or fishing villages.

What should I budget for green fees and general costs when golfing in Múlaþing?

Green fees in Múlaþing are generally quite reasonable compared to many international destinations, often ranging from 5,000-8,000 ISK per round, offering excellent value for such unique courses. You'll find that renting clubs is usually an option, but it's wise to check ahead, especially at the smaller clubs. Overall, Iceland can be pricey, so factor in accommodation and food, but the golf itself won't break the bank.
