Stadium Course

Be tested against the best

Golf, at its most challenging and rewarding

For over 25 years, Camiral’s Stadium Course has challenged and captivated the world’s most committed amateur and professional golfers.

Drawing on its dramatic terrain and beautiful natural landscape, intelligent and subtle design has created a course that entices players to revisit constantly.

The Stadium Course is one of the most beautiful any golfer could aspire to play, with mountains and lush forests creating a constant distraction. Also lying in wait to undermine any scorecard are numerous strategically located trees, bunkers and water hazards.

The Stadium Course’s excellence is underscored by notable honours:

- Its signature 13th hole has been named as one of Europe’s Top 100 holes;

- It was named Spain’s number one golf course between 2012 and 2019 by top100golfcourses.com;

- It has hosted the Spanish Open three times, in addition to the DP World Tour Catalunya Championship in 2022.

Hole 1

Favour the right half of the fairway to open up the hole. A 3-wood might be the club, as the water on the left is only 234 metres away from the yellow tees.

Reachable in two by the longest hitters, but dangerous for all since the green is set hard against a lake. Usually best to aim for the middle of the green, wherever the flag is.

Blasting away with a driver is not wise since the shot is blind and water lurks on the left. A shot onto the flatter part of the hill is perfect for a more controllable approach.

The Stadium story

Opening in 1999, the Stadium Course was designed from the outset to meet Ryder Cup standards.

Under the guidance of European Tour legends Neil Coles MBE and Ángel Gallardo, the course’s spacious holes and banking were designed to allow 30,000 spectators an unhindered view.

Over the years, the Stadium Course has been upgraded to present players with greater challenges. Lengthened to 7,333 yards, a number of iconic holes were toughened including the lakeside 3rd green, expansive par-3 11th and the 18th fairway.

These changes were prompted by the Stadium partnering with The European Tour. Doing so has ensured a quality of on- and off-course facilities that guarantee a memorable experience for players and spectators alike.
