Boat of Garten
Boat of Garten was laid out by James Braid, in 1898. Located 30 miles south-east of Inverness, it has long been regarded as one of Scotland’ s prettiest courses, which is no surprise when you see the Cairngorms rising above the avenues of trees. You will not be taxed in terms of length( 5,900 yards, back tees) and your driver could easily be left in the car, but Boat of Garten demands accuracy to find tight, rambunctious and electrifying fairways bounding between silver birch and pine trees. Now throw in some heather and broom for added colour. Every hole is enchanting and the terrain has considerable undulation – think trampoline – to increase both the course’ s beauty and drama. Holes drive uphill and down, with often tricky approaches to small tilting greens cleverly perched. An absolute joy to play and keep an eye out for steam trains.

Boat of Garten is located in the Cairngorms National Park, where the mountains remain snow-capped for well over half the year – and can be seen from the course.
