This is a full round of eighteen holes across Hirvensalo, following a 10.6 km walk through the real streets of the city. The map uses the actual urban layout, where the ball banks off building facades and rolls toward landmarks like Turun tuomiokirkko. These real attractions are what the holes are built from, connected by thirty portals for fast travel. Skip knows every nook of these pavements, even the spots where the best crumbs hide.

Sightsee between strokes

Every hole ends at an attraction. Sink the putt, read the story, walk to the next tee.

HOLE 3 - PAR 3

Qwenselin talo

Let me show you the Qwensel House. It is located in an area reserved for the nobility in a city plan made by Per Brahe the Younger in 1652. This is the oldest wooden house in Turku, Finland, and was built approximately in the year 1700. Today, you can visit the building to see the Turku Pharmacy Museum or stop by the café. I've noticed the wooden walls have a certain charm that makes you feel the history of the neighborhood.

Aboa Vetus Ars Nova

This isn't just a single gallery, but a museum complex in central Turku. Aboa Vetus Ars Nova combines two different worlds under one roof. The archaeological section, Aboa Vetus, displays portions of the city dating back to medieval times. In contrast, Ars Nova is a museum of contemporary art. The entire complex had its inception in 1995 and is housed in the Rettig palace, a building originally built in 1928. I've found the blend of ancient ruins and modern art makes for a very interesting walk.

You can pick out the Neoclassical architecture style that defines the structure. It is an astronomical observatory that is protected by the law on the protection of the architectural heritage in Finland. It is a great spot to get your bearings in the city, though I usually prefer the view from the eaves for a better look at the streets below.

Turun taidemuseo

You will first notice the presence of Turun taidemuseo, which is an art museum. It was founded in 1904 and remains a significant part of the local culture. As a museum building, it draws a steady stream of people throughout the year, with 80,848 annual visitors passing through its doors. I find it a great spot to spend an afternoon if you enjoy wandering through galleries and seeing what the city has to offer. It is a place where art and architecture meet, making it a destination for anyone visiting the area regardless of whether they are playing a game.

Lönnrotinpuisto

This isn't a wild forest or a rugged coastal beach, but rather a curated park called Lönnrotinpuisto. It is a place for a leisurely stroll through managed greenery here in Hirvensalo. The grounds were started in 1896, which makes it one of the older planned spaces in the area for people to visit. I find it is a great spot to watch the world go by while keeping your feet on the path, and it is a nice place to clear your head during a busy day of sightseeing.
