Alto golf course is located in Portugal’s
Western Algarve, between Alvor and Praia da Rocha, approximately 5 km
from the
city of Portimao
and is a part of the exclusive Alto Country club resort.
This Algarve golf course
is set in beautifully
landscaped gardens, with villas, apartments and
townhouses, many of which have superb views of the sea, the golf course
or the
fabulous gardens.
The 18-hole, Par 72 golf
course, which is over 6,000 meters long was opened
in 1991 and was the last to be designed by the legendary Sir Henry
Cotton. It
still boasts one of the longest holes in the country, the par 5 16th
is an absolute monster at 604 meters long!
The course’s winding
fairways and elevated greens reflect Sir Henry’s
golfing philosophy of providing low handicap players with a testing
game whilst
still affording plenty of enjoyment for the average
players.
Beginners are
also welcome at Alto golf course
as it provides both a driving range and teaching personnel as
an
introduction
to the game for novices and casual golfers who wish to play whilst on
holiday.
