4. Halmstad (North)
Architect: Rafael Sundblom & Nils Skold GF: €56 W: hgk.se
Located on a promontory jutting out into the sea, the North course is a place of great peace, tranquillity and even isolation. It was developed in two distinct phases; the first in the 1930s, the second some 30 years later using the original back nine whilst adding a new nine on land approved by the Swedish National Forest Enterprise. In 2007 it hosted the tenth staging of the Solheim Cup.
