Hikami Course
Takamatsu Grand Country Club
About this course
Takamatsu Grand Country Club's Hikami course is located in Kita, a mountainous area in Kagawa Prefecture on the island of Shikoku. The region is characterized by forested hills and valleys, and courses here typically work with significant elevation changes and natural terrain features. Kagawa is Japan's smallest prefecture by area, situated along the Seto Inland Sea, though the Hikami course sits inland where the landscape becomes more rugged. The course reflects the design approach common to Japanese golf facilities built during the country's golf expansion in the latter decades of the twentieth century, when many clubs developed multiple eighteen-hole layouts to accommodate growing membership demand. Courses in this mountainous terrain often feature dramatic elevation changes from tee to green, with holes routed through forested corridors and across hillsides that provide views of the surrounding landscape. The Takamatsu Grand facility serves members and guests in a region where golf remains a popular recreational pursuit, with the club offering traditional Japanese hospitality and dining. The Hikami course, like many in Shikoku's interior, requires players to manage uphill and downhill shots and to navigate the natural contours of the land. The setting provides a contrast to the flatter coastal areas of Kagawa, offering a golf experience shaped by the mountainous character of central Shikoku.

Getting there
Most international visitors arrive via Takamatsu Airport, a compact regional gateway roughly thirty minutes north of the club, though Osaka's Kansai International offers broader connections and lies just over two hours away by expressway. The drive south from Takamatsu city traces the gradual rise into Kagawa's interior hills, leaving behind the Seto Inland Sea's coastal plains for a landscape of terraced rice paddies and forested ridgelines. As the road climbs toward Kita, the air grows cooler and the surroundings quieter, until Takamatsu Grand Country Club reveals itself amid the elevated greenery - a serene retreat shaped by the contours of Shikoku's gentle highlands.
