Guide to Salobre Golf

Come and shake off the stresses of everyday life in the sensational resort of Salobre. Set high above Maspalomas, amongst mountain scenery that'll whip your breath away, it's a world away from the bustling coastal areas. Unhurried, restful and ravishingly picturesque - you'll soon be stepping in time to the gentle rhythm of life here. With views of the captivating countryside rolling all the way down to the scintillating sea, you may want to set off on foot and explore your rural surroundings. Follow sun-dappled trails as you soak up the stunning setting and stop off along the way for a chat with the warm-hearted locals. Another way to drink it all in is on horseback. Whatever your riding ability, experience an exhilarating adventure as you trek across the beautiful terrain here. What most people come here for though, is the golf. And with one of the island's newest courses designed by Roland Faure and Dave Thomas, you'll soon see why. This exciting and demanding course, an 18-hole, par 71, covers an area of 6km and sits in a magnificent landscape, with ravines and volcanic landscapes contrasting against the lush greenery of the course. Its facilities include a golf school, practice area, driving-range, putting green, club hire, hydro-massage, pro-shop and restaurant with a terrace. If you master this one, head for Maspalomas' course, created by Mackenzie Ross. Encircled by sand dunes, it's a long, flat course and with the mild trade winds washing over you, it's a wonderful place to play. Of course, you may just want to find a secluded spot on Maspolomas' shifting sand dunes and do nothing more strenuous than apply the odd squirt of sun cream. And who could blame you?
