Course Information.
A first-rate course is usually the work of a top designer creating
in a stunning setting. Empordà Golf Resort is such a facility.
The combination of a location that is in the most beautiful part of
the Costa Brava and the magic touch of Robert Von Hagge has resulted
in the completion of one of the most ambitious and creative projects
in the area and the Empordà Golf Course being ranked as one of
the ten best in Spain.
The Empordà Golf Resort is only one and a half hours from Barcelona,
thirty minutes from Girona and its airport, and fifteen minutes from
the best beaches on the Costa Brava, such as Aiguablava, Calella, Llafranch,
Palamós, L’Escala and L’Estartit. It is also close
to beautiful medieval villages such as Pals and Peratallada.
The resort offers two magnificent courses; Empordà Links built
among the lakes and dunes and Empordà Forest that meanders amongst
the pines trees.
The Links course is an open but demanding course. Freedom, space and
generosity are words that come to mind when describing this spectacular
course. Its quality and variety has resulted in it being chosen as the
permanent host for the PGA European Tour Pre-Qualifying School II.
Six starting tees, extensive greens and up to five different flag positions
provide multiple playing options, as if it was the best course to play
on every day, and the layout will delight all kinds of players from
amateurs to professionals.
The area of lakes, dunes and bunkers confers exceptional beauty on
the surroundings while, at the same time, it requires the players to
use their best strokes.

The Forest course is a top quality design. Shade, water, trees and
silence are the key elements on this eighteen-hole course which wends
its way among lakes and pines, under the watchful eye of the Castle
of Montgrí.
The course passes through a well-tended Mediterranean pinewood in the
heart of an exceptional landscape that is typical of the area. The inevitable
presence of the lakes and the layout of the fairways, lined with tall,
native pines, are notable aspects of its design. The constant presence
of water, although it sometimes presents a major challenge for golfers,
does highlight the magnificence of the area.
