Valencia golf information
Campo de Golf El Saler
The El Saler course is situated in the Albufera
Nature Park on the shores of the Mediterranean, just south of
the city of Valencia.
It is laid out on terrain dotted with pine trees and sand dunes,
with the las few holes looking very much like a typical English
course.

Campo de Golf Manises
The Manises Golf Club is the oldest of the Valencian
clubs. It is a 9-hole course, whose flat layout requires precision
and constancy because the fairways are narrow and flanked by dense
trees, and the greens are small and surrounded by numerous bunkers,
with limited room to manoeuvre on the approach and a lot of rough.
The important thing to remember all the way around is not to lose
sight of the straight line. You also have to bear in mind the
difficulty which exists when coming off the fairways. The 7th
hole, a very long par-4, is especially worth mentioning as is
the fairway of the 3rd, where the second shot – if you manage
to clear a group of tall pine trees – can reach the green
and allow you to go for a well-deserved birdie.
Basically, it is a very comfortable and simple course which will
be enjoyed by elderly people, beginners and children.

Club de Golf Escorpion
Located in a lovely valley, surrounded by small
hills covered with pine trees. The course is picturesque, even
though it is not particularly undulating. It has five lakes, on
which numerous birds nest. The 5th hole is very dangerous if you
don´t put the drive on the fairway, as the fairway is bordered
on the right by a big lake that punishes a slice and on the left
by a rough full of orange trees. The drive on the 18th holes is
not too complicated due to the wide fairway, but a sharp slice
will leave the player facing a nasty rough.

creations of Seve Ballesteros. It is on the southernmost point
of the coastline of Valencia and consists of an 18-hole course

El Bosque Golf & Country Club
Situated in the Autonomous Region of Valencia,
just 15 minutes from Manises airport and 25 minutes from the city
centre.
It has an 18-hole round located on very undulating terrain, the
fairways are narrow and there is abundant local vegetation. There
are four lakes which could prevent you from making par. Two holes
especially worth mentioning are the 9th, strongly defended by
pine trees, and the extremely tough 7th. The holes are strategically
situated and blend into the surrounding landscape. Basically,
it is a round which varies in terms of layout and level of difficulty
but it is easy to get a good result.
