The course & its setting
The first 9 holes unfold on flat terrain in the heart of the Vidago valley, offering a fluid and accessible game. The last 9 holes surprise with their hilly terrain, with breathtaking panoramas of the surrounding nature, the majestic Vidago Palace and the neighboring villages.
A unique environment
The design of the course has been carefully developed to preserve each century-old tree, emphasizing the harmony between golf and nature. Among its strengths are tees lined with traditional stone walls and elevated greens, which add character to the game.
The strategic layout of the bunkers, as well as greens with sometimes deceptive slopes, require careful reading and great precision, providing a stimulating technical challenge for all levels.
