Golf at Nermo Hotell

From a potato field to Scandinavia’s most ambitious golf facility

Welcome to Hafjell Golf!

The driving range and golf course are now open for the season!

The ball dispenser uses the same payment solution as before, meaning both a payment terminal and ball cards are available. There is still frost in the irrigation system, so we are unfortunately not able to wash range balls for now.

At reception you will find a small Pro Shop with the essentials for your round. We also offer complete rental sets for women, men, and left-handed players.

The story of the golf course

In 1988, John Nermo applied for permission to use parts of the cultivated farmland on the farm for a golf course. The answer was no. Eleven years later, he applied again. This time, the county agricultural board came to inspect the site – and said yes.

On Midsummer’s Eve in 2002, Hafjell Golf officially opened on the very same land where potatoes and grain once grew.

Today, the golf facility surrounding Nermo Hotel is one of the most complete in the region: a 9-hole park course, driving range, pitching area, putting green, and the only 18-hole miniature golf course in Scandinavia with real grass. All just outside the hotel door.

Hafjell Golf – a 9-hole course you'll remember

Hafjell Golf is a parkland and forest course with large greens, many bunkers and varied terrain that offers good challenges regardless of your handicap. The course surrounds the hotel on all sides, and the view of Gudbrandsdalen is never far away.

The high level of ambition was clear from the start. Johannes and Per Nermo, who were behind the golf project, set themselves one goal: no golf courses in Eastern Norway should have better greens. It is a goal that still characterises how the course is cared for.

The playing season is normally from early May to the end of October, depending on the weather and conditions. In addition to the course itself, the facility has a driving range, pitching track and putting green for warm-up and practice. A pro shop and restaurant are part of the hotel.

For those who want to explore more, Mjøsen Golf Club with an 18-hole course is approx. 25 km away, and indoor golf simulators can be found in Håkon's Hall in the centre of Lillehammer.

The Nordic region's only 18-hole mini golf course with real grass

There is only one of its kind in the entire Nordic region, and you can find it at Nermo Hotel: An 18-hole mini golf course with real grass, bunkers and water hazards.

All holes are inspired by real golf with lengths ranging from 13 to 54 metres and a total length of approximately 549 metres. In other words, this is not astroturf mats and plastic obstacles, but a real facility where you actually learn something about golf while playing.

This makes it an activity that works just as well for children as for the adults who may actually have wanted a round on the big course, but were turned down by the boss at home. A round takes about an hour, requires neither a green card nor experience, and tends to create just the kind of rivalry that makes the afternoon memorable.

Residents of the hotel receive a discount on mini golf. Clubs and balls can be borrowed at reception.

Golf packages and offers

Nermo offers golf packages where accommodation and golf are combined. This makes it easy to plan a golf weekend where you don't have to coordinate between different players: you stay where you play, dine at the hotel, and the course is ready whenever you are.
