Oustøen Country Club

Oustøen Country Club occupies the island of Oustøen in the Oslofjord near Fornebu in Baerum and is accessible only by boat, a circumstance that gives the club a degree of privacy unusual even by Norwegian standards. The 18-hole course plays to par 72 over just over 5,650 yards, featuring five par fives balanced by five par threes and a set of shorter par fours that offer genuine scoring chances for the well-positioned player. Bunker reconstruction has sharpened the course's strategic demands, and the island setting, gourmet restaurant and on-site accommodation make Oustøen a destination unto itself for those with access.
