Åkersberga Golfklubb

Åkersberga Golfklubb sits in the coastal town of Åkersberga, roughly 30 kilometers northeast of central Stockholm in the Swedish archipelago region. The course was designed by Bengt Lorichs, a Swedish architect who worked extensively throughout Scandinavia during the latter half of the 20th century. The layout reflects the natural topography of the Stockholm coastal zone, where forest and rock formations shape the playing corridors and strategic decisions. The routing moves through mixed woodland typical of the region, with holes framed by pine and birch. The terrain features moderate elevation changes and exposed bedrock in places, characteristics common to courses built on this glacially-scoured landscape. Water comes into play on several holes, and the design asks players to navigate both the natural contours and the strategic placement of hazards. The course serves the local golfing community in the northern Stockholm suburbs and provides a woodland setting distinct from the more open links-style courses found elsewhere in Sweden. Åkersberga functions as a traditional member club with a regional membership base drawn from the surrounding municipalities. The facility includes practice areas and a clubhouse that supports year-round activity during the Swedish golf season, which typically runs from late spring through autumn. The course represents a standard of mid-century Swedish golf design adapted to the specific conditions of the Stockholm archipelago's inland edge.
