SAND VALLEY GOLF TRIP

   

What is SAND VALLEY GOLF trip?

A course architect we are familiar with, a course that we are not. What awaits us is unknown, but for the first time we have lodging directly on course and excited to experience Sweden’s National Day, playing, celebrating and enjoying the undiscovered.

About SAND VALLEY

To say Sand Valley is somewhat remote, could be slightly underestimated. But where else do you discover the hidden gems?

Located just outside the small town of Pasłęk, Poland, the journey to Sand Valley is a 1-hour drive from Gdansk, the incredible coastal city that has been practically rebuilt since World War II.

Walking around Gdansk you can easily misplace your bearings and confuse it for Amsterdam or Copenhagen – but without the bikes. The post war rebuilds focused on establishing its historic ties with The Netherlands and the Dutch renaissance period.

Dlugi Targ highlights the renaissance with a walk down the entire street not to be missed. On the way don’t miss any of the fantastic restaurants, churches and nearby waterfront. All in all a visitor experience not to be missed.

At Sand Valley there are no ties to The Netherlands, Finland if you are counting, but there remains a battled history and a golfing journey that is worth listening to should you find yourself with a seat at the table.

Golftrips första golfdag summeras varmt och utmanande... Personalen tipsade oss innan start att ta första dagen som en liten inspelsrunda. ”Lär er känna banan, håll igen lite för att veta inför kommande rundor vad ni ska använda för klubbor”. Tror ni någon av oss...

We woke to a beautiful sunrise on the ocean, eager to get to shore and Sand Valley. But first we planned to stop in Gdansk, 30 minutes from Gdynia. We arrived early to the city centre on a warm and sunny Sunday morning. There were quite a few people out already, some...

Äntligen ankomst Sand Valley

Efter en fin förmiddag i Gdansk ankom vi efter 2 timmars körning den golfanläggning som skulle vara vår anhalt de kommande dagarna...  Direkt fick vi känsla av USA. Lite gated community känsla med nästan likadana och lyxiga hus strategiskt och fint placerade. Alla med...

Golftrips första dag… Polen välkomnar oss

Andra sidan Östersjön. Så nära. Men så annorlunda. Nästan lite exotiskt.  Polen bjuder på fantastiska upplevelser. Det är inte för inte vi återkommer.  Vår resa började i en fullpackad bil hemifrån Helsingborg. Solen sken. Vi var taggade och längtade. Vi hade planerat...

The trip

Having travelled by car and plane on previous trips, it seemed only natural to try something new. Boat; or Ferry to be precise. Connections between Sweden and Poland are plentiful and gave us options. The option to travel overnight, the option to take in beautiful Gdansk and the ability to move about before a short 90 minute drive to Sand Valley.

Golf Trips is a golf travel website designed to stimulate interest in unique golf destinations by capturing the essence of a journey. We write, report and collaborate with a professional photographer to deliver valuable media content for distribution.
