Golf Courses at Lake Taupo Jack Nicklaus Kinloch

Lake Taupo has a number of golf courses catering for all experience levels, and this is one for the better golfer amongst us. I was lucky enough to see Jack and his son Jacky Jr play the first nine holes when it first opened 2007.

The course as you would expect from an international standard is very challenging, with long rough and narrow fairways, and some interesting shaped greens stray and you pay!
