Salobre Old Golf Course
Overview
The Salobre Old Golf Course, also called Salobre Sur, is one of the top golf courses in Gran Canaria. Designed by Roland Favré, it opened in 1999 and features 18 holes with a par of 71. This course is special because it is set in beautiful volcanic surroundings. Golfers can enjoy wide fairways, high tees, and amazing views of mountains and the ocean while playing. It’s a great course for players of all skill levels who are visiting the Canary Islands.
Course Layout
The course is designed to fit perfectly into its rough landscape. It features a combination of tricky holes where you need to be precise instead of just strong. As you play, you’ll see natural dips, rocky areas, and multi-level greens. There aren’t many water hazards, but the sloping fairways and constant breeze make the game even more challenging.
Standout Holes
One of the signature holes is the 5th, a short but dramatic par-3 that plays across a deep ravine to a small green guarded by bunkers. Another standout is the par-5 10th, a downhill hole with stunning views and a risk-reward approach to the green. The 18th hole, a strong par-4 finishing beside the clubhouse, rounds off the experience perfectly.
Facilities
Salobre Golf Resort offers facilities for golfers. You can relax in a clubhouse, use locker rooms, and shop at a pro shop. There’s also a practice area with a driving range and putting greens to help you improve your game. Plus, the nearby Salobre Hotel Resort & Serenity provides luxurious rooms and spa services, making it a great place for a golf holiday in Gran Canaria.
