Arninge Golfklubb
About this course
Arninge Golfklubb sits in Täby, a municipality in the northern Stockholm metropolitan area, where suburban development meets the forested, rolling terrain characteristic of the Swedish capital region. The course was designed by Bjorn Eriksson and Bob Cain, reflecting a period when Swedish golf architecture increasingly incorporated international design influences while working within the natural Scandinavian landscape of pine and birch woodland, granite outcroppings, and modest elevation changes. The layout moves through mixed forest and more open ground, typical of courses built to serve Stockholm's growing golf population in the latter decades of the twentieth century. The design takes advantage of the natural topography without dramatic earthmoving, creating holes that play through corridors of trees and across clearings where the underlying bedrock occasionally surfaces. Water features and strategic bunkering provide definition and challenge appropriate to a course serving both members and daily-fee play in a competitive metropolitan golf market. Arninge functions as an accessible option for golfers in the northern Stockholm suburbs, part of a network of courses that accommodate the region's active golfing community during the short but intense Swedish playing season. The club operates within the Swedish golf culture that emphasizes accessibility and participation, offering a woodland parkland experience shaped by the constraints and opportunities of its suburban setting. The course provides a straightforward test of golf without pretense, designed to fit its landscape and serve its local membership base.

Getting there
Most visitors arrive via Stockholm Arlanda Airport, Sweden's primary international gateway, located roughly 30 minutes north by car. The drive south toward Täby unfolds through the gentle, forested terrain of the Stockholm archipelago's inland fringe, where dense stands of pine and birch gradually yield to the manicured suburbs of the capital's northern corridor. Arninge Golfklubb sits just beyond the city's outer ring, a discreet retreat where the hum of metropolitan Stockholm fades into the quiet rhythms of Swedish parkland golf.
