Hallstavik Golfklubb

Hallstavik Golfklubb sits in the coastal town of Hallstavik, roughly 100 kilometers north of Stockholm in the Roslagen archipelago region. The course was designed by Bengt Lorichs, a Swedish architect who worked on numerous layouts across Scandinavia during the latter decades of the twentieth century. The design reflects the natural character of this part of Sweden's east coast, where forests meet the Baltic Sea landscape. The routing takes advantage of the area's rolling terrain and wooded corridors typical of the Stockholm archipelago region. Players encounter holes framed by pine and mixed forest, with elevation changes that provide variety in stance and shot selection. The layout incorporates natural features common to Swedish coastal golf, including rocky outcroppings and vegetation native to the region. Water features appear on several holes, consistent with the proximity to the archipelago environment. Hallstavik serves as a community course for the town and surrounding area, offering golf in a setting that balances accessibility with the natural beauty of Roslagen. The club operates within the traditions of Swedish golf culture, where clubs often function as social centers for their communities. The course provides a representative example of regional Swedish golf design, shaped by the landscape constraints and opportunities of the coastal forest environment north of the capital.
