“The grass is always greener on the other side of the fence” says a Danish proverb. However, the grass in our region is actually greener than in most other parts of Denmark, thanks to the mild winters and the proximity to the coast. Thanks to this turf-friendly climate, it is not an April Fool's joke when we say that you can usually play on a perfect green as early as April 1st.
Sonderborg Golfklub is very centrally located near Augustenborg. The slightly hilly terrain, partly overgrown with old hedges and open meadow stretches, creates optimal conditions for an exciting and varied course of holes.
