About This Course

Kinugawa Country Club, established in 1959, is one of the oldest courses in Tochigi Prefecture. Nestled in a peaceful, forested setting shaped by the nearby Kinugawa River, the course offers a mostly flat and gentle layout with tree-lined fairways. The 18-hole course features challenging holes that require precision, including water hazards and longer shots. Visitors can enjoy the unique experience of hearing the nearby steam locomotive whistle, adding to the charm. After your round, relax in the clubhouse’s natural hot spring bath sourced directly from the course grounds. This serene environment provides a refreshing escape from the city.

Playing Tips

Tight, tree-lined fairways demand accurate tee shots so prioritize placement over pure distance off the tee.

The course is mostly flat and allows for roll on drives and long irons, so account for extra ground game when choosing clubs.

Bentgrass greens are generally true and can be brisk, so focus on precise distance control and low-run approach shots.

Several holes include water hazards and narrow landing areas, so play conservatively near hazards and consider laying up when the corridor is tight.

Tree cover usually keeps the wind light, but winds can pick up along the Kinugawa River so check conditions on exposed holes.

Weather & Seasonal Information

Local Weather Patterns

Summers are warm and humid with frequent rain, winters are colder with occasional frost or snow, and spring and autumn are generally mild and comfortable; tree cover usually keeps winds light but conditions can be breezier along the Kinugawa River.

Best Season to Play

Late spring (April–June) and autumn (September–November) are the best times to play, with comfortable temperatures and especially attractive autumn foliage in the Nikko area.
