Parco de’ Medici Golf Club

This fantastic golf course is divided into three 9-hole golf courses; the white, red and blue course. With the option of an impressive three courses, golfers here can enjoy a few rounds of varied play. Situated just outside the city centre of Rome, the Parco de’ Medici Golf Club is highly accessible for all travellers to Italy, and boasts a perfect location for an Italian city golfing break!

The landscape of the White course boasts its own unique history; it was previously used as a hunting ground for Leo X, the 15th century Pope. On this course, there are several challenging tee shots which may discourage the use of your driver. The challenge is continued onto the Red course, designed by David Mezzacane and Massimo Mannelli, and is generally considered to be the perfect warm-up course. Lastly, the Blue course is predominantly characterised with several water hazards strategically placed to capture your stray shots. The final fairway on this course distinctively features the remains of an ancient Roman dwelling.

This 80-hectare parkland course boasts several interesting holes that are sure to stay in your memory for years to come. Rome’s principle river, the Tiber, passes through the par-4 13th hole, yet is hidden behind a large bank therefore it is always important to study the course map as not to let it hinder your score. The par-3 15th hole is widely considered to be the best par 3 on the golf course due to its heavily bunkered landscape and the several water hazards lining the green.
