Las Ramblas
Overview: spectacular, elevated tees, narrow fairways and lightning
greens. This is a great test of golf and will be a memorable game.
Las Ramblas means the old river beds, you will see plenty of these
during your round! This 18-holer is on mountainous ground which
makes the course very interesting for players who like to take a
few risks. As it is very mountainous, it calls for difficult strokes.
It is worth mentioning the many trees that surround the course,
and the water hazards. There are slopes are all along the course
and although some of them are very difficult, they make the game
more attractive and interesting. The course is not too long and
has wonderful views. Accuracy is required.
