Golfing in the Baltic States

ESTONIAN Golf and Country Club, part of the European Tour Properties network recently earned the prestigious international mark, GEO Certified.

The resort, ranked among the top 100 golf courses in continental Europe by Golf World magazine, joins an elite group of golf venues to have earned the distinction, which is certified by the Golf Environment Organisation (GEO).

Congratulating the club, Jonathan Smith, chief executive of GEO, said: “Estonian Golf & Country Club has viewed its operations through a sustainability lens since opening, evidenced by the natural look of the courses and the ever higher standard the team is achieving. 

“The independent verifier who visited the course noted, in particular, excellent use of its geographic location, drawing irrigation water directly from the Jägala River, just before it flows into the Gulf of Finland, plus the venue’s efforts to move closer and closer to organic.”

As part of the European Tour Properties network, Estonian Golf & Country Club presents a world-class level of on- and off-course facilities guaranteed to provide a memorable golfing experience to all members and visitors. European Tour Properties comprises a network of world-class golf venues, located in key strategic golf markets.
