Veckefjärdens Golf Club

Veckefjärdens Golf Club, majestically positioned by the idyllic shores of Veckefjärden just south of Örnsköldsvik, embodies the very essence of golfing in Sweden’s breathtaking landscapes. Since its grand unveiling in 2003, meticulously crafted by Kent and Peter Forsberg, this gem among the greens has quickly ascended to become one of Norrland's most esteemed golf clubs. Its offering of a tranquil yet invigorating atmosphere perfectly combines top-tier golf with leisure and social interaction, welcoming not just avid golfers but anyone seeking refuge in the beauty of the High Coast's serene nature. The club's 18-hole course, a marvel of golfing architecture, challenges and delights players with its intriguing mix of links- and heathland styles. Meandering just under 6,500 metres from the championship tees and presenting a par of 72, each hole is constructed to harmonize with the natural undulating terrain, featuring rolling fairways, strategic bunkering, and subtly sloped greens. Signature holes, such as the peninsula green at the 14th, demand precision and provide unforgettable moments against the backdrop of Veckefjärden Lake. Additionally, a 9-hole short course allows for a faster play experience without sacrificing the quality or the scenic views that characterize the main course, encouraging players of all levels to engage with the game. After the final putt drops, the experience at Veckefjärdens Golf Club extends far beyond the fairways. The clubhouse, with its expansive practice areas, offers not just a spot for post-round analysis but a venue for relaxation and dining, boasting a restaurant that serves delectable meals complemented by panoramic views of the course, water, and the surrounding hills. For those looking to extend their visit, the adjacent renovated hotel provides a cozy retreat with comfortable accommodations and direct access to both the vibrant life of Örnsköldsvik and the tranquil nature trails of the High Coast. Whether it's the allure of the challenging greens, the beauty of the setting, or the warm embrace of the clubhouse and hotel amenities, Veckefjärdens Golf Club offers an exceptional golfing journey and an unforgettable slice of Swedish hospitality.
