ACT
There are ten clubs in ACT affiliated to the 24-club ACT Monaro District Golf Association which in turn is one of twenty Men’s Country Districts in membership of Golf NSW. Whilst the John Harris-designed Royal Canberra (Westbourne) layout stands head and shoulders above all the other courses in ACT, that’s not to say the others should be easily dismissed. For instance, the old Federal course at Red Hill (dating back to 1933) has many admirers, as do a couple of mid-1990s designs at Gungahlin Lakes and Gold Creek. Our ACT Rankings were last updated in January 2024.
Royal Canberra Golf Club (Westbourne)
ACT, Australia
Royal Canberra Golf Club (Westbourne)
Designed by Commander John Harris, the Westbourne course at Royal Canberra is delightfully routed through the Westbourne Woods arboretum.
Gold Creek Country Club
ACT, Australia
Gold Creek Country Club
The course at Gold Creek Country Club hosted the 1996 Australian PGA Seniors shortly after it opened and the winner of that particular tournament is still fondly remembered at the club because Trevinos, the Bistro, is named in his honour.
Gungahlin Lakes
ACT, Australia
Gungahlin Lakes
As its name suggests, the course at Gungahlin Lakes Golf Club features a variety of beautiful ponds and lakes and these challenging water hazards threaten from the tee at some holes and with the approach shot at others.
