Wednesday Golf Open

Golf Vall d´Or

Illes Balears, Spain

Vall d'Or Golf is an 18-hole course with a par 71 and length of 5,538 metres. The course was inaugurated in 1986 as a 9-hole layout, with an extension between 1991 and 1993 adding nine additional holes to create the current configuration. The extension was designed by American architect Bradford Benz. Located on Mallorca's east coast near the resort of Cala d'Or, the course features two distinct landscapes. The front nine has undulating fairways surrounded by Mediterranean pine, almond and olive trees, while the back nine (the original holes) features wider and more rugged fairways marking the descent towards the coast. The 3rd hole is noted as one of the best on the island, a par-5 with an elevated tee offering views over the bay of Porto Colom that plays downhill through a valley before turning left to a green set into a hillside with rock bouldering. The back nine is more open, allowing golfers to play for scores, and the course features three lakes and numerous bunkers. The course is hilly in nature.
