Golf Club de Genève

4-PLUS: Must play course - excellent standard; worthy of 4½ stars.

Est. 1921

Golf Club de Genève is home to a championship course that ranks in the top echelon of golf courses in Switzerland. Located in the commune of Vandoeuvres, at the top of the Cologny hillside, this handsomely bunkered parkland layout provides a wonderful test for your all-round game.

Beyond the tree-line you'll get the opportunity to admire the city of Geneva, as well as Lake Geneva and its impressive fountain. But don't worry too much about water hazards on the course ... there are few. Later in the round the Alps and Mont Blanc provide the scenic backdrop to proceedings.

Here at Geneva's most prestigious golf address you can enjoy an ever-testing, excellently crafted Robert Trent Jones Sr layout. Fittingly, both nine-hole loops come to a close on a large double-green directly in front of the charming clubhouse and its usually bustling terrace.
