Frequently Asked Questions

How easy is it to get to The Scandinavian Golf Club from Copenhagen, and what's the best way to travel there?

Getting to The Scandinavian from Copenhagen is straightforward, but you'll need a car or a taxi; public transport doesn't quite reach the doorstep. It's about a 30-40 minute drive north of the city, making it a perfect day trip if you're staying in the capital. We always recommend renting a car for the flexibility, especially if you plan to explore more of North Zealand.

I only have time for one round - should I play The Old Course or The New Course at The Scandinavian?

This is a tough choice, as both are exceptional Robert Trent Jones Jr. designs, but we lean towards The Old Course for its slightly more dramatic feel. It carves through the forest with a bit more elevation change and a truly memorable back nine. The New Course is fantastic too, perhaps a touch more open, but The Old offers that classic, immersive Scandinavian forest golf experience we love.

The green fees at The Scandinavian seem high - is it truly worth the investment for a round?

Absolutely, if you appreciate immaculate conditions and a top-tier experience, The Scandinavian delivers. You're paying for pristine fairways, lightning-fast greens, and a level of service that makes you feel genuinely valued. Consider it an investment in a truly memorable day of golf, where every detail, from the practice facilities to the clubhouse, is exceptional.

When is the best time of year to play The Scandinavian for the best course conditions and weather?

For the ideal Scandinavian experience, target late May through early September. The Danish summer offers long daylight hours, generally pleasant temperatures, and the courses are in their absolute prime. You'll find the greens running true and the fairways lush, making for a truly enjoyable round without the chill of early spring or late autumn.

How challenging are The Scandinavian's courses, and are they suitable for all handicap levels?

Both the Old and New Courses are designed to test you, especially from the back tees, with strategic bunkering and water hazards that demand precision. However, with multiple tee boxes, they are surprisingly playable for higher handicappers too, allowing you to choose a length that suits your game. You'll still need to think your way around, but it's a fair challenge, not an impossible one.
