With many natural hazards, small greens, difficult lies and sloping fairways, Alva Golf Club is nothing if not a challenge. Yet, at just nine holes, it's easy to fit in a round here.

The Ochil Hills surround Alva, offering a picturesque backdrop. The hills run from the village of Muckart on to Stirling. This area is packed with golf courses, and in fact 30 excellent layouts are within a half hour's drive of Alva Golf Club.
