About Wairakei Golf + Sanctuary
Wairakei Golf + Sanctuary is not just a golf course, but a sanctuary for both golf enthusiasts and wildlife. Voted as New Zealand's Number 1 Golf Course, Wairakei offers a truly unique and world-class golfing experience. Its design seamlessly blends with the natural rolling countryside, meeting the highest standards for championship competition.
The golf course's rich history dates back to its opening in February 1970, with its layout remaining true to the original design by Commander John Harris, Michael Wolveridge, and Peter Thomson. While ownership has changed, the commitment to providing a top-notch golf experience remains. Wairakei is also dedicated to conservation efforts and creating a predator-free sanctuary to support native bird and wildlife populations.
It has partnered with the Department of Conservation since 2012 to provide a safe environment for kiwi chicks and retired breeding takahe. Beyond its exceptional golfing amenities, Wairakei boasts stunning landscapes, with meandering streams, waterfalls, and a symphony of birdlife. Visitors can also explore the fully stocked Pro Shop, offering leading brands and various golfing accessories.
Whether you're an avid golfer or simply seeking a memorable experience, Wairakei Golf + Sanctuary is a must-visit destination
