About This Course

Kamishihoro Golf Course is a scenic 36-hole facility located about 45 minutes by car from Obihiro Station, set at the foothills of the Naitai Plateau Ranch. The course offers a varied and strategic golfing experience with two distinct layouts: the Champions Course demands power and careful planning through its long, tree-lined holes, while the Masters Course requires precise shots to navigate water hazards like creeks and ponds. Positioned on a highland overlooking the Tokachi Plain, it provides stunning natural views and a relaxed atmosphere with golf carts available for self-play.

Playing Tips

On the Champions Course prioritize distance and precise tee placement to avoid tree-lined corridors and set up manageable approaches.

On the Masters Course play conservatively around creeks and ponds and favor the safe side of the fairway to minimize penalty risks.

Expect elevation changes—add one club for uphill approaches and subtract one for downhill shots when adjusting yardage.

Greens are bentgrass and very well maintained but feature subtle undulations, so focus on distance control as speeds can run moderate to quick in summer.

Fairways are relatively narrow and the highland location brings crosswinds, so on breezy days favor accuracy over pure power.

Weather & Seasonal Information

Local Weather Patterns

Highland Hokkaido conditions with cool mornings and evenings, generally mild summers, frequent clear days, and variable winds that often strengthen in the afternoon, while long, snowy winters make the course unplayable for much of the year.

Best Season to Play

Late May to October (peak June–September) when temperatures are mild, fairways are lush and greens are open; the course is generally snow-covered or closed in late autumn through spring.
