Sankt Jörgen Park

Very close to the city center on the northern edge of Gothenburg resides the golf resort St. Jörgens Park. With its own hotel just by the first tee and only 15 minutes into downtown Gothenburg this is a real alternative for golfers.

The golf course opened in 1991 as a short nine-hole course, The original holes were redesigned in 1996 and another nine holes added. Today it is a full-length course with two different characters. The “old” section, which is quite narrow with very strategically placed water hazards, requires precision and thought. The newer holes are longer and slightly wider.

Gothenburg and the West Coast have got international travel journalists and food bloggers eating out of their hands. Why? World-class seafood, world-class restaurants and a coastline and archipelago to die for.

Gothenborg is the second largest city in Sweden with over 500.000 inhabitants. Being a port city you are never far from water in Gothenburg; down at the harbour where giant ferries traffic continental Europe, or the city’s beautifully laid-out canals.
