Ängsö Golf Club

Ängsö Golf Club is beautifully nestled between Enköping and Västerås, in an area that exudes the Mälardal idyll. This is a challenging 18-hole course for golfers who appreciate a park and forest environment where every detail feels well thought out. The course is known for its fairways that wind their way through old land, and it is not uncommon to be accompanied by both hares and deer during your round. It is a place that feels far away from the stress of the big city, despite being so close to the larger cities.

The layout at Ängsö is characterized by a good variety. You have holes that are relatively open and invite you to dare to push the ball, but you also have the more technical holes where control is key. What I like about Ängsö is how they have managed to make the course fair – you are not penalized for a decent shot, but the skilled players still have the opportunity to make good scores if they dare to play smart. The greens are of a good size and offer a lovely roll. The club also places great emphasis on the course being beautiful to look at, with flowering plantings and nice views of the surrounding landscape.

It is a club that focuses a lot on the whole. The clubhouse is cozy and offers a menu that is perfect after a round of 18 holes. There are also good practice areas for those who want to spend an hour on the range before teeing off. If you are looking for a course in Mälardalen that offers a genuine golf experience without being overly complicated, then you should definitely put Ängsö on your list.
