A golf course with unique scenery on the outskirts of Marseille
Nestled in the heart of the Treille hills in a protected area of Marseille, perfectly situated among typical Provençal countryside, the fairways wind their way across undulating terrain and flat areas that add interest and variety to your game.
Architect Michel Gayon has designed a most attractive 18-hole golf course. A tactical golfer will rise to the challenge of the hazards that pepper this course, starting with the water that adds an attractive, fresh aspect. Next comes the mounding, followed by the rocks and many well-positioned bunkers. You might find the buggy useful here!
