Opened in 1966, this course has a rich history of hosting tournaments like the Bridgestone Aso Open. Players can enjoy stunning views of the majestic Aso Five Peaks while navigating a thoughtfully crafted layout that blends the natural volcanic terrain with wide, mostly flat fairways. The course is divided into two distinct sections: the lush, tree-lined Kijima OUT course and the volcanic rock-featured Nakadake IN course, providing a varied and memorable golfing experience.

Playing Tips

Although the fairways are wide and mostly flat, the overall length (about 7,078 yards) means you still need distance to hit comfortable approach shots into par 4s and 5s.

Play conservatively off the tee on the tree-lined Kijima (OUT) side because errant drives can be blocked by older trees and leave difficult recovery shots.

On the Nakadake (IN) side watch for volcanic rock features and outcrops that penalize wayward shots, so favour placement over heroics on tighter holes.

The course’s bentgrass greens can run moderately quick and often have subtle breaks, so focus on pace control and reading putts carefully.

Wind from the surrounding Aso peaks can shift and strengthen on exposed holes, so check conditions and adjust club selection and shot trajectory accordingly.

Weather & Seasonal Information

Local Weather Patterns

Aso sits in a mountainous area so mornings often bring cool temperatures, mist or fog and variable winds; heavy rain occurs during the June–July rainy season and typhoons can affect late summer, while winters are generally mild but can have occasional frost at higher elevations.

Best Season to Play

Spring (March–May) and autumn (September–November) are the best times to play for mild temperatures, clearer views and more stable weather while avoiding the rainy season and typhoon period.
