Getting there

The journey to Linton Camp Golf Club begins at Auckland International Airport (AKL), New Zealand's primary gateway, followed by a scenic two-hour drive south through the Waikato farmland and into the rolling Manawatu region. For those arriving by private aviation, Palmerston North Airport (PMC) lies roughly forty minutes from the club and offers a more intimate arrival point. The final approach winds through pastoral countryside dotted with native bush and sheep stations, the landscape gradually tightening into the verdant hills surrounding Linton, before the club's understated entrance emerges - a fitting introduction to one of the Southern Hemisphere's most quietly revered golf destinations, where isolation and craftsmanship converge.
