Most people might think that Nepal is famous for Trekking, Expedition, Rafting and other Adventure holidays, but Nepal is also a perfect destination for golfers. Nepal has some famous golf courses that provide excellent opportunity to play in the tranquil natural beauty and in the back drop of dramatic Himalayan panorama. Most people don’t consider Nepal as a golfing Nation.
Golf is one of the most expensive sports of the world. The history of golf in Nepal goes back to the time when a delegation of Rana ministers returned home with golf clubs from a visit to Scotland. They started playing golf in what is today's Gaucharan. The first real golf tournament Lava Cup was started in 1920.The several golf courses in Nepal are: Gokarna Forest Golf Resort and Royal Nepal Golf Course in Kathmandu, Himalayan Golf Club and Fulbari Resort Golf Course in Pokhara and Nirvana Country Club in Dharan. The best time for a play is during the dry season between October and March. Golf clubs in Kathmandu and Pokhara offer excellent courses with magnificent view of the Himalayas.
The courses are scenic as they are challenging, making a game of golf in Nepal more than just a leisure activity. Whether in Kathmandu or Pokhara, the fresh snowy peaks provide a stunning backdrop to the golf courses often set amidst emerald surrounding fields. And add to this Nepal's balmy weather during most times of the year-golfing is simply an unforgettable experience. Gokarna Forest Golf Resort (18 holes), Kathmandu
