Course Report
The course is set in a picturesque forest and park landscape only minutes from Drammen city center, making it a popular golfing destination for both locals and visiting players.
About
Drammen Golfklubb is an 18-hole parkland course located in the scenic Skoger area just south of Drammen, Norway. Designed by Jeremy Turner and established in 1989, the course features a varied, hilly layout suited to all levels. Amenities include a complete practice area, clubhouse, pro shop, and rental trolleys. A sociable atmosphere and maintained conditions attract local and visiting golfers.
Caddie Tip
Navigating the hilly terrain is key; choose conservative lines on blind tee shots and pay attention to club selection, especially on up- or downhill approaches. Take advantage of the practice facilities to get a feel for the putting greens, which can change pace with the weather.
The Main Challenge
The most challenging aspect is the elevation changes throughout the varied, hilly layout. Strategic club selection and shot accuracy are essential on several blind and sloping holes, with narrow fairways and well-placed hazards adding extra test. The final holes can demand particular focus, especially for those seeking to post a good score.
The Good
Golfers especially love the course's scenic setting bordering forest lands and its challenging, varied routing. The friendly club environment and quality practice facilities add to an enjoyable, social day of golf. The elevation changes and landscape variety keep rounds feeling interesting and rewarding.
The Not So Good
Some players mention that the hilly terrain makes certain parts of the course physically demanding, particularly for those walking without an electric trolley. After heavy rains, drainage and wet spots on fairways might impact playability. More on-course signage for visitors would help with navigation.
