Troxhammar Golfklubb

Troxhammar Golfklubb operates a twelve-hole course on Ekerö, an island municipality in the Stockholm archipelago west of Sweden's capital. Designed by Peter Fjällman, a Swedish architect active in Scandinavian golf course design, the layout reflects the region's characteristic terrain of mixed forest, glacial till, and moderate elevation changes. The course serves a local membership and visitors seeking golf in the Stockholm area's natural setting. The twelve-hole format is relatively uncommon in Swedish golf but allows for flexible play and efficient use of the property. Routing on this scale typically emphasizes variety within a compact footprint, moving through wooded corridors and more open ground shaped by the island's topography. The landscape around Ekerö features the rocky outcroppings and coniferous forest common to the Stockholm archipelago, providing a setting distinct from parkland courses closer to the city center. Troxhammar functions as a community club, offering golf in a less formal environment than Sweden's larger championship venues. The twelve-hole configuration accommodates both full rounds played twice through and shorter outings, suiting recreational players and those with limited time. The course represents a practical approach to golf development in the Stockholm region, where land availability and environmental considerations shape design decisions.
