Akureyri Golf Club operates Jaðarsvöllur, an 18-hole, par-71 course immediately south of Akureyri in northern Iceland. The club itself was founded on 19 August 1935, making it Iceland's second-oldest golf club, but the present course developed later at Jaðar. The first nine holes at the current site entered use around 1970, with a second nine added in 1980.
The course is widely identified as the world's most northerly recognised 18-hole golf course and is closely associated with the Arctic Open, played around the summer solstice under near-continuous daylight. Facilities include a clubhouse, restaurant and bar, golf shop, club rental, driving range and PGA instruction. The course is open to visiting golfers with tee-time booking available.
