Frequently Asked Questions
When is the absolute best time to play Meland Golfklubb, considering Norway's climate?
You'll find Meland truly shines from late June through August. The days are long, the weather is typically mild, and the course is in peak condition, offering lush fairways and fast greens. We recommend booking your tee time well in advance during this prime window, as it's popular with both locals and international visitors.
What kind of golf experience can I expect from Meland's course design - is it a tough track or more forgiving?
Meland offers a fantastic blend of challenge and playability, set within a beautiful, undulating landscape. You'll encounter some tricky elevation changes and strategically placed bunkers, but the fairways are generally generous enough to keep things fun. We particularly love the back nine, where the views over the surrounding countryside really open up and demand your attention.
We're flying into Bergen - how easy is it to get to Meland Golfklubb, and should we rent a car?
Getting to Meland from Bergen is quite straightforward, usually a scenic 30-40 minute drive north. We definitely recommend renting a car; it gives you the freedom to explore the beautiful West Coast region before or after your round. The drive itself is pleasant, taking you through charming Norwegian landscapes.
What should I expect to pay for a green fee at Meland, and does it represent good value compared to other Norwegian courses?
Green fees at Meland are generally in line with what you'd expect for a quality course in Norway, typically ranging from 600-900 NOK depending on the season and day. We think it's excellent value; you're getting a well-maintained course with stunning views and a friendly atmosphere, which is hard to beat. Consider their twilight rates for a slightly lower cost if you're flexible.
Are there any signature holes or unique features at Meland Golfklubb that I should be excited to play?
Absolutely, Meland has a few holes that really stick with you. Keep an eye out for the par-3 14th; it's a beautiful downhill shot with a fantastic backdrop that demands precision. We also love the finishing stretch, particularly the 18th, which offers a challenging approach back towards the clubhouse - a great way to end your round.
