Things you need to know about golf in Kanto & Koushinetsu
Choose from a variety of course types, including Forest, Hilly, and Riverside layouts.
The Kanto region is one of Japan's most densely populated areas, with over 35 million people in the central prefectures (Tokyo, Kanagawa, Saitama, and Chiba) and a total metropolitan population exceeding 44 million. Due to this high density, golf courses have been ingeniously crafted across diverse terrains where land was available. During the early to mid-Showa era (the early 20th century), flat forest-style) courses were the most popular. However, from the late Showa era through the Heisei period, development expanded into more rugged terrain, leading to the creation of many dynamic hilly and mountainous courses.
Access courses in every direction via the highway network starting from Tokyo.
Access to golf courses in the Kanto and Koshinetsu regions depends on the specific prefecture and course you are visiting. The Tomei Expressway serves the Kanagawa and Shizuoka directions, while the Chuo Expressway provides access to the Tokyo and Yamanashi areas. The Kan-etsu Expressway covers the Saitama, Gunma, and Niigata directions, the Tohoku Expressway connects to Saitama, Gunma, and Tochigi, and both the Joban and Higashi-Kanto Expressways lead to Chiba and Ibaraki. Additionally, the Tokyo Bay Aqua-Line is a very familiar and popular route for golfers traveling toward the Chiba area.
Japan's only PGA Tour event held at Narashino Country Club (Chiba Prefecture).
Chiba Prefecture is the most popular golfing destination in the Kanto and Koshinetsu regions. Its popularity stems from its gentle, favorable terrain; as Japan’s lowest-altitude prefecture, even its highest peak reaches only 408 m. Among the many acclaimed courses in Chiba, Narashino Country Club stands out with world-class recognition as the exclusive host of Japan’s only PGA Tour (U.S. Men’s Professional Golf Tour) event. Meanwhile, in Saitama Prefecture—where many courses are known for their varied undulations—Omurasaki Golf Club has gained significant popularity for its exceptionally flat yet highly strategic layout.
