Rock: The Ambitious Project Redefining Par 3 Courses
It all started with a dream to create the world's best par 3 golf course. This dream evolved into a vision for building Finland's finest residential area.
The nine-hole Rock aspires to be the best par 3 course globally. The Rock and its clubhouse, "The Rock" restaurant, form the heart of the unique Rock Resort residential area, just a half-hour drive from Helsinki.
Discover a new standard in golf and living at Rock Resort, where ambition meets elegance.
Aiming to Be the World's Best Par 3 Course
Rock is being built with an unwavering commitment to quality. More time and money are being invested into every detail and square meter of this golf course than any other in Finland.
On a well-designed par 3 hole, everything ahead is visible from the tee. At Rock, most tee shots are made from elevated positions. While Rock offers the potential for a hole-in-one on every hole, the wide range of hole lengths from 84 to 214 meters and the diverse greens ensure that players won't have an easy time.
The back tees, with their sufficient lengths, large water hazards, and bunkers, guarantee a challenging experience for competitive players. However, from the forward tees, the holes are gentle enough for less experienced golfers to enjoy the course's beauty and charm.
The Choice is Yours
The striking island green at TPC Sawgrass (17), Augusta's legendary par 3 hole (12), and Pebble Beach's iconic 7th hole facing the ocean—par 3 holes often top the list in surveys of the most memorable golf holes. Rock offers nine of these unforgettable holes, allowing you to choose your favorite.
Discover the allure of par 3 golf at Rock, where every hole is a masterpiece waiting to be played.
"I believe that the most debated topic during post-round discussions on the terrace will be which of Rock's nine magnificent holes is the very best." — Lassi Pekka Tilander, the course architect.
The Largest Golf Center in Continental Europe
Pickala is every golfer's dream come true. With three distinct full-length courses—seaside, park, and forest—you can find the perfect layout to match your preferences. Each course offers a unique experience, making it well worth playing all three.
Now, with the addition of Rock, the golfing experience at Pickala reaches new heights. Together, Rock and Pickala Golf's courses form the largest unified golf center in Continental Europe, measured by the number of holes.
