Golf in Jämtland County

Klövsjö-Vemdalen Golf Club has both an 18-hole course and the nine-hole Fäbobanan. The shorter course is an alternative in its own right for golfers wanting less play without leaving the mountain district. Rossön Golf Club creates nine or 18 holes in another way. Nine greens are approached from double tees, producing a longer round through new angles to the same targets. Narrow woodland fairways reward careful direction.

The range continues around Östersund. Östersund-Frösö Golf Club has an 18-hole course and a separate nine on Frösön. The larger course alternates between parkland and woodland on a south-facing hillside, with Lake Storsjön and the Jämtland mountains nearby. Norderön Golf Club follows a complete 18-hole course on a rural island in Storsjön. Sandnäset Golf at Dvärsätt instead has 13 holes in undulating woodland and parkland.

Mountain golf in Jämtland is therefore not one kind of round. Åre keeps the river close, Funäsfjällen stays beside the lake, and Klövsjö provides both a full and a shorter course. Rossön uses the same nine greens for rounds with two different hole counts. Around Östersund, golfers can choose Frösön's two courses, Norderön's island setting or Sandnäset's unusual 13-hole circuit.

The differences are meaningful for the golfer. A complete day beside Ljusnedalssjön, nine holes on Fäbobanan or 13 at Dvärsätt suit different plans. At the same time, the Jämtland landscape returns through river, lakes, woodland and mountain views. A journey can begin with both the surroundings and the desired hole count, without treating any course as a smaller copy of another.
