Onyria Palmares Parque de Floresta
The new Palmares Golf Course is a course of great beauty. It
recently reopened, with a brand new layout designed by Robert
Trent Jones Jnr that perfectly blends mountain and coastal views.
The par-71 layout uses a blend of manicured landscapes which
boast a mix landscape of white sand and high dunes. New layout
has plenty of breathtaking views to Alvor or to the sea mixed
with great holes in the dunes. Located close to the historic city of
Lagos, Palmares offers a wonderful blend of beach and mountain
scenery. Its clubhouse affords a fantastic panoramic view over a
25-km stretch of Atlantic coastline. The Torneio das Amendoeiras
em Flor, the oldest amateur tournament in the Algarve, has been
played here since 1977. Situated in the westernmost part of the Algarve, only 15 minutes
away from the city of Lagos, this varied course spreads over the
slopes of the hills overlooking the ocean. The Parque da Floresta
golf course was designed by the Spanish architect Pepe Gancedo,
whose general philosophy is to interfere with nature as little as
possible. The fairways therefore accompany the natural contours
of the terrain, spreading along the valleys and gorges, with their
vineyards and eucalyptus groves, bordered by olive-trees, palms
and pines. With an enjoyable par-71 course and full resort
facilities, Parque da Floresta always proves popular with tourists.
New layout has plenty of
breathtaking views to Alvor or to
the sea mixed with great holes in
the dunes.
Half the course is located in
the National Agricultural Reserve;
typical trees of the Algarve
(almond and carob) and ancient
ruins form the characteristic
landscape of this versatile course.
