The white sand dunes of Nullarbor National Park in Australia will be the backdrop to the world's largest golf course, spanning 1,400 kilometers along a desert highway. Authorities have unveiled plans to build one hole at each of the 18 towns and petrol stations along the Eyre Highway, to be collectively known as Nullarbor Links. Motorists will stop at each petrol station, play a hole, then drive some 100 kilometers to the next tee. (Goldfields Tourism)
