El Bosque Golf Club

El Bosque Golf Club, located in the foothills of Chiva, just 20-30 minutes from Valencia city, offers one of the best golf experiences in the Valencia region. Designed by Robert Trent Jones Sr. and opened in 1975, this 18-hole, par-72 parkland course is about 6,249 meters from the back tees.

Surrounded by Mediterranean pines and natural vegetation, it combines stunning beauty with challenging play. Golfers looking for golf courses near Valencia will find El Bosque a memorable place to play.

Course Layout and Design of El Bosque Golf Club

The course layout takes full advantage of the terrain and a deep natural ravine (rambla) that crosses the property. This creates changes in height, doglegs, and varied hole shapes that reward smart play over pure power.

Tree-lined fairways wind through the landscape, while the Mediterranean setting adds beautiful views. A major update improved the watering system, drainage, bunkers, and grass, creating excellent conditions year-round.

The result is a classic yet modern golf course in Chiva that feels both timeless and perfectly kept.

Course Challenges

El Bosque tests every part of your game with its bold design style. Narrow fairways require accuracy off the tee, while strategic bunkers and carries over ravines create risk-reward choices.

Water hazards protect several greens, and subtly sloped putting areas guarded by bunkers require accurate shots and a soft touch. The course is fair for all skill levels but still offers a real challenge for experienced players.

El Bosque Golf Club Signature Holes

Several signature holes highlight the course’s character. The 8th hole stands out as a favourite, with a beautiful lake right in front of the green that requires an accurate, confident first shot.

The long 9th hole (often the hardest) is a tough test with its difficult first shot and second shot over water. Water comes into play on several holes, especially the 12th, 13th, 14th, and 15th, where shots over or around water create memorable moments.
