Northernmost Golf in the World
Here's how to achieve one-upmanship on your golfing pals back home: Play at the northernmost golf course in the world. The Björkliden Arctic Golf Course has only 9 holes, occupying a terrain of mostly thin-soiled tundra with a scattering of birch forest. It is open from mid-June to mid-August. During that limited period, golfers can play 24 hours per day, as the course is lit by the midnight sun. For more information, contact Björkliden Arctic Golf Club, Kvarnbacksvägen 28, Bromma S-168 74 (tel. 08/56-48-88-30). Bromma is a suburb of Stockholm.
