Wakakusa — Young Grass — is one of Nara’s defining hills, a grassy slope east of the deer park that turns gold in autumn and is famously burned each January in the Wakakusa Yamayaki ceremony. Nara Wakakusa Country Club takes its name from that landscape, a course set in the hills near the ancient city with a character that reflects its surroundings.
The Course
The course is built on rolling hillside terrain with well-maintained fairways and greens. The layout provides a balanced test — demanding enough to engage better players, approachable enough for higher handicappers to enjoy the round. The views toward the Nara hills on clear days are a consistent highlight, and the overall atmosphere of playing golf in this historically rich landscape is hard to replicate elsewhere.
