Golf, a sport preferred by the elite, is considered to be the most stylish sport
in the world. The most elegant among various sports, it has gained enormous esteem
all over the world, and Marrakech is not far behind. The evidence of the following
that golf has in this imperial red city comes from the fact that there are three
golf-courses in Marrakech. Of these, one is the Palmeraie Golf Club, Marrakech.
A masterpiece created by international master Robert Trent Jones at the celebrated
Palmeraic (Palm Grove) at Marrakech, the Palmeraie Golf Club, Marrakech is an
18-hole par 72 course, which covers an area of 6,214 meters. With the grandiose
Atlas Mountains as a backdrop, and an eternally clear bright sky, this course
is one of the most wonderful locations to enjoy the game.
The Palmeraie Golf Club, Marrakech consists of a large open valley, punctuated
by thousands of palm trees and embroidered with seven lakes. There is a magnificent
Moorish styled club house, which is made of ochre walls and green tiles, and
forms a magnificent centerpiece to the whole place.
The hazards of the Palmeraie Golf Club, Marrakech are formed by the white sand
bunkers and lakes, and provide some cool challenges to the golfers. Having hosted
several international events, including the Ladies European Tour, this golf
course is a must-try for any avid golfer, or golfing enthusiast.
