From the E18 (Orebro - Karlskoga highway) take exit Lanna and Golf sign. After 600 metres golf parking is on your right.
Lanna Lodge Golf Resort (previously known as the Örebro Golf Club) is home to an excellently designed, wooded parkland golf course. Surrounded by forested hills, the layout understandably contains its fair share of tree-lined holes. There is generally enough space to hit the fairways (or semi-rough) safely, while ball finding between the trees is not too problemmatic should you occasionally stray offline. But don't cut too many corners on the gently sweeping dog-leg par-4s, of which there are many fine examples. Water hazards are scarce, and only a significant factor on one par-3. A few slopes, particularly on some of the earlier holes, will loosen the leg muscles, but overall this is not a tiring course to walk. Although the E18 highway separates part of the golf course from the rest, the road is not a sufficient distraction to spoil your enjoyment of another of Sweden's inland gems.
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends.
Must book in advance (visitors can book 3 days ahead of day of play). Maximum handicap: 36.

Tournaments:
PGA Championship: the first men’s major of the year will be contested at TPC Harding Park, without spectators being present (Aug 6-9).
European Senior (Staysure) Tour: the Europe-based over-50s tour for men has taken the reluctant step of cancelling the entire 2020 season, based on the additional coronavirus risk associated with the age demographic of the players.
Who's Who:
Miguel Ángel Jiménez: recorded his 707th European Tour start at the English Open in July, surpassing Sam Torrance’s record for the most appearances on the Tour.
Brooks Koepka: the former world No.1 defends his title at the WGC-FedEx St Jude Invitational at TPC Southwind in Memphis (July 30-Aug 2).
Traigh Golf Course (pronounced "try", and meaning "beach" in Gaelic): You'll find this nine-hole seaside gem on the scenic coast road (as opposed to the more inland and quicker A830) between Arisaig and Morar. Although not on the well-beaten path of Scotland's "trophy" courses, if you are passing through this area, it's a must play.
