Cathkin Braes Golf Club (18 Hole Course)
Moorland Course in Rutherglen, Scotland
Cathkin Braes Golf Club is a private 18-hole moorland course located in Rutherglen, Scotland. Founded in 1888 and later redesigned by James Braid, it is the oldest golf course in Glasgow still on its original site. The course sits over 650 feet above sea level, offering panoramic views towards Glasgow, the Campsies, and the Arran Hills. Despite its name, meaning "Hills", the 6209-yard, par 71 course is relatively flat, though it features tricky, tree-lined holes, such as the par-3 fifth which requires navigating a loch. Facilities include a practice area, driving range, putting green, pro shop, changing rooms, lockers, restaurant, and bar.
