Roslagens Golfklubb

About this course
Gamla at Roslagens Golfklubb is a nine-hole course located in Norrtälje, north of Stockholm, in the Stockholm archipelago region of Sweden. The course was designed by Thure Gabriel Oxenstierna, a Swedish golf architect active in the early-to-mid twentieth century. Oxenstierna's work reflects the Scandinavian tradition of routing courses through natural forest and water-defined landscapes, making efficient use of the terrain available. The course occupies a setting typical of the Stockholm archipelago, where granite bedrock, pine and birch forest, and water features define the character of the land. Gamla's nine holes work through this natural topography, with routing that takes advantage of elevation change and water hazards common to the region. The relatively compact footprint of a nine-hole layout allows for intimate engagement with the landscape while maintaining the strategic variety expected of a well-designed course. Roslagens Golfklubb has served the local golfing community in the Norrtälje area for many decades. As a nine-hole venue, Gamla functions both as a full course for members and as a practical option for casual play and instruction. The club's setting in the Stockholm region places it within reach of the broader Swedish golfing network, though it remains a regional rather than nationally prominent destination.

Getting there
The journey to Roslagens Golfklubb begins at Stockholm Arlanda Airport (ARN), Sweden's primary international gateway, situated roughly 40 kilometers north of the capital; from there, a serene 90-minute drive northeast carries you through the Stockholm archipelago's forested hinterland and into Norrtälje, a coastal town steeped in maritime heritage. For those arriving by private aviation, Norrtälje Airport provides a discreet alternative closer to the club's waterside setting. The final approach unfolds along quiet Swedish country roads that open onto the Roslagen peninsula, where the club's classical grounds emerge overlooking the Baltic's northern reaches - a transition from urban Scandinavia into the hushed, pine-studded landscape that defines Stockholm's outer archipelago.
