Trump International Golf Links
Trump International Golf Links
Trump International Golf Links in Aberdeenshire is one of the most dramatically situated courses in Scotland — set among towering sand dunes just north of Aberdeen, with the North Sea stretching to the horizon. Martin Hawtree routed the course through the shifting dunes landscape, creating a sequence of spectacular holes where every drive must negotiate the natural terrain.
The course has proved divisive for reasons beyond its geography, but few can argue with the quality of the golf experience itself. The sheer scale of the dunes — some of the largest in Scotland — creates a sense of visual theatre unmatched on the links circuit. Several holes rank among the most memorable in Scottish golf. Ranking in the world's top 50, it's earned its place on any serious Scottish golf itinerary.
