Tampere Golf Courses and Clubs

(Tampere, Pirkanmaa, Western Finland, Finland)

Playing a round of golf at Tampere can be especially memorable, since due to the long daylight hours in the summer, you can almost play 24-hours a day. Tampere locals often choose to take advantage of these conditions and often play at the end of the day, straight after work.

Due to the extreme summertime hours of play, golf courses in the Tampere area are rarely crowded and it is usually possible to enjoy a leisurely round without booking ahead. Nearby clubs can be found within the towns of Nokia and Pirkkala, just a short distance away.
