Escorpion Golf Course

The 27 holes let you combine three different rounds where your technical skill will be challenged each time you hit the ball. The fairways are protected by a consolidated, dense forest and the presence of water features on the fairways provides a special incentive.

The nine holes that give personality and tradition to the course are situated around the farmhouse, La Masía, and are characterized by its flat topography . The presence of two big lakes come into play on holes 5, 6, 8 and 9. If the head plays with the heart the water will not penalize the player, instead it contributes to rhythm and beauty of the game.

The nine holes that make up Lagos are watermarked. Water in-front and at either side affects five holes. The 8th hole , a par 3 of 160 meters, is known for ” The demon” . The water feature is on the right side and accompanies the player from tee to green. It is a very difficult hole as halfway through you will find water also on your left side and as a top-up there is a large bunker protecting the green. Secure players will go straight for the green and the player knowing its limitations will opt for a middle long stroke reaching the green with the second shot instead of sending the ball into the lake. The existing lakes in this part of the course have become over time to protected waters due to the wide variety of aquatic birds found in them.

The last nine holes incorporated in the course are known to “New 9” and talk the player over undulating terrain with 3 Par 5 and lakes where the amateur player will find it a challenge to reach the green with three strokes. There is no water and the breathtaking views of the Sierra Calderona contribute to the beauty of this particular part of the course. The greens are slightly higher without presenting additional difficulty to reach them. The bunkers are big and will always come into play for both the amateur and professional player . The club house is also famous for its great cuisine.
