Fritze Grd Golf Park, home to Larvik Golf Club, is located due south of Larvik at the mouth of the Oslo fjord, along with the Larvik Golf Academy, an exciting short-hole course that forms part of the training facility here. Peugot Golf Guide ranks this international standard arkland/seaside course among the best in Europe, in competition with the likes of Valderrama, St. Andrews and Royal Mougins: Youll always remember this course as a large beautiful park with views of the fjord at every touch and turn. Larvik is undoubtedly one of the best courses in Norway. If you ever get the chance to play it, then carpe diem. Liberally sprinkled with large fairway bunkers, as is Swedish golf course architect Jan Sederholms wont, Larvik has links-like characteristics and an unusual combination of six par 5, six par 4 and six par 3 holes. That, together with some clever use of natural water obstacles and unforgiving rough makes for some rather challenging golf. But then again, who said taking on the challenge of nature was easy?
