A course to bag in Iceland 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:Aug 5, 2018 Played the course:once

Pros:

-Tees are cobble stone, and while they are inconsistently shaped, they are good quality and adequate for what is needed at this course.
-There are posts in each tee pad that say what hole it is, but no par or distance.
-High quality DISCatcher baskets.
-Fairways are short grass with assorted walking paths as typical for a city park course.
-Extremely easy to navigate, the flow is intuitive, and tees are clearly visible from each basket.
-This is in a nice city park, and the course is pretty cookie cutter in terms of a typical city park type course, but there is a low amount of graffiti and garbage, so there is overall a nice vibe at this course.

Cons:

-Not really any rough to get stuck in, other than the occasional bush.
-No elevation, or mounds, just flat.
-A couple trees in the fairways that add to the holes, but some shots are just 200' straight shots with a tree or two on the green.
-No OB, one Mando, on an easy course like this you need to have stuff like that to make it a little more difficult.
-Short distances, almost all holes are ace opportunities and most are pretty unchallenging because they are right there over flat ground with only a couple trees in the way.

Other Thoughts:

This course is a fun activity to do in Reykjavik, my hotel was just over a kilometer away from this park, so I had to play it, and it was worth it.

Fairly typical park course 2+ years drive by

Reviewed: Played on:May 13, 2016 Played the course:once

Pros:

Easy to find. Easy flow. Good for beginners or those just visiting the city who want to get in a round of disc golf. Plenty of other locals around who can help out if you are visiting from another country. Park is well maintained.

Cons:

A couple of holes have some technical shots, otherwise there is not a lot of variety if you are looking for a technical course. Other than tee numbers and an initial map, there is little signage, although it is fairly easy to find the next tee and see the next basket. I do not think there are bathrooms ("water closets") other than what is available at the museum located on the premises, which costs money to enter. There can be other park visitors in the way of some shots.

Other Thoughts:

A very skilled local who was playing behind us told us that this course was not the best that Reykjavik had to offer. He advised taking a 15 minute car ride out of the city for one of the better and more technical courses. Unfortunately, I did not have that opportunity. There were quite a few other players there that day, telling me it would be fairly easy to get more information about local courses, and most speak English. I would advise playing this course if you are in the area because it is easy to get to, fairly typical, and you might not have another opportunity if this is the only time you plan to visit Iceland. It is fun to play and you won't be disappointed you did.
