Bro Hof Slott — Stadium Course
A Robert Trent Jones Jr. championship course on Lake Mälaren — consistently ranked among the best in continental Europe.
Course overview
Bro Hof Slott's Stadium Course was designed by Robert Trent Jones Jr. and opened in 2007 on a dramatic lakeside site on the shores of Lake Mälaren west of Stockholm. Stretching to 7,357 metres at par 72, it is one of the longest and most demanding courses in Scandinavia and has hosted the Scandinavian Masters on the European Tour. Sweeping views across the lake, bold bunkering and large, contoured greens combine to create a course that is as visually impressive as it is strategically challenging.

Signature Hole
5
A long par-3 over an inlet of Lake Mälaren where the green is almost entirely surrounded by water on three sides, framed by the lake stretching out behind it. Played from an elevated tee, the shot demands a precise mid-to-long iron that must hold a green with no safe short side — the combination of carry requirement, wind off the water, and scenic drama made this hole the visual centrepiece of the Scandinavian Masters when it was played here.
