Shirasagi Golf Club: Castle Town Golf in Historic Himeji

🇯🇵 Japanese name: 白鷺ゴルフクラブ

★★★★ 3.8 (362 Google reviews) — View on Google Maps → Planning to play? See our guide on How to Book a Golf Course in Japan as a Foreigner.

Himeji is home to Japan’s most spectacular castle — the White Heron Castle, a UNESCO World Heritage site that survived the Second World War intact and still dominates the city skyline. Shirasagi Golf Club shares the bird reference: shirasagi means white heron, and the club carries the name with the quiet confidence of a course that has been part of the Himeji landscape for a long time.

The Course

The course is set in the rolling terrain west of Himeji, with a layout that makes good use of the natural topography. Tree-lined fairways, well-maintained greens, and a design that rewards positioning over power — the hallmarks of a well-made Japanese parkland course.

The Himeji location makes this an easy combination with a castle visit. A morning round of golf followed by an afternoon at Himeji Castle — or vice versa — is a natural itinerary for visitors to western Hyogo.
