Esbjerg Golfklub (Marbaek course)

4-PLUS: Must play course - excellent standard; worthy of 4½ stars.

Est. 1975

Esbjerg Golfklub, located in the Wadden Sea National Park, offers two 18-hole championship layouts. The highly-rated Marbæk course is typically targeted by visitors. It is kept good company by the also challenging Myrtue course. Both take their names from neighbouring local areas.

Esbjerg's Marbæk course presents a wonderful mix of wooded holes, and others of a distinctly more heathland character. The latter are well-defined by copious areas of heather, which creates a wonderful and varied test for your all-round game.

Danish designer Frederick Dreyer's Marbæk layout contains many attractive, skilfully crafted and challenging holes ... a testament to his very keen interest in, and knowledge of, the great links layouts of Scotland. First amongst Dreyer's inspirations ... need one ask? ... the Old Course, St Andrews.
