## About the course

Kanetsu Golf Club Nakayama Course lies in the quiet village of Takayama in Gunma's Agatsuma district, within about 15 km of the Tsukiyono interchange on the Kan-etsu Expressway. Opened in 1995 to a design by Brian Jones, it is an 18-hole, par-72 layout of 6,532 yards set on hill country yet playing largely flat, with fairways framed by broadleaf forest and bentgrass greens, one per hole.

### A hill course that walks like a flat one, _wrapped in Gunma's woodland._

Riding carts carry you between the tree-lined holes, and the gentle terrain makes for a relaxed day in the countryside rather than a mountain slog. The setting is ideal for combining golf with Gunma's famous hot-spring towns: Ikaho and Shima Onsen are within reach, and the Sarugakyo area sits on the drive in from Tsukiyono. Without a car, take the Joetsu Shinkansen from Tokyo Station to Jomo-Kogen (about 1 hour 15 minutes), then a roughly 15-minute ride to the club. Note that the club has no driving range and accepts cash only.
