Catalonia is golf
Golf Club Tourism Catalogue 2010
"From the moment you hit your first ball, you establish a lifelong love of golf." That's what we're told; but we still want to experience it for ourselves. And time after time, swing after swing, we send that ball flying. In Catalonia, the same will happen to you: you'll want to come back time and again. And you'll never grow tired of it, because there'll always be something new to surprise you.

10 Catalonia is golf
The golfing scene in Catalonia is extensive and diverse: from the more competitive, high-demand courses, to the more flat and smooth, suitable for players at all levels.
Quality and diversity

Catalonia has a long sporting tradition. So it's no surprise that one of the first golf courses in Spain was opened in Catalonia, at Sant Cugat del Valls, in 1914. The course was the initiative of a group of British railway workers involved in laying the tracks for today's regional railway, Ferrocarriles de la Generalitat de Catalunya, which, three years later, would link the town to Barcelona. The Sant Cugat golf course, which, to this day, its members keep up like a garden, remains quite active. Before the 1980s, no more than half a dozen other courses were opened, drawing together enthusiasts of a sport then still considered elitist. It was the arrival on the scene of Severiano Ballesteros and his international triumphs that sparked the first real wave of golf enthusiasm. New players, new tournaments and new courses began to sprout up all over the country. In just a few years, golf became a major draw, both for locals and visitors coming from abroad to engage in their favourite sport. Golf fever reached new heights in Catalonia during the 1992 Olympics in Barcelona. Today, the passion continues to thrive in the many international golf tournaments staged here. Catalonian courses have hosted several editions of the Spanish Open -one of the oldest in Europe- as well as the Catalonia Open, the Sanyo Open, the Sarazen Open and the Johnnie Walker Trophy. Moreover, Catalonia will host this year's European Tour Qualifying School tournament. All these competitions have brought major international figures to the country, including Lee Trevio, Gary Player, Greg Norman, Nick Faldo, Tom Watson, Raymond Floyd and Bernhard Langer. Catalonia has also hosted the Catalonia Ladies Masters, part of the professional Ladies European Tour. The Catalonia Ladies Masters was first staged in 2003 and has attracted such major figures as the charismatic English golfer Laura Davies, the Swede Sophie Gustafson and Lorena Ochoa from Mexico -currently ranked fourth in the world- in addition to the Catalonian Paula Mart. Catalonia currently boasts 37 large golf courses and 45 Pitch & Putt and par 3 facilities, these last conceived as venues for beginners and as alternatives to longer courses for players
pressed for time. Of the full-length courses, 22 are open to tourists, with the remainder operating as private clubs. The golfing scene in Catalonia is very extensive and diverse: from highly demanding, more competitive courses, where the most skilled players strive to equal the performances of their idols, to flatter, gentler courses, appropriate for golfers of all levels seeking to enjoy a relaxing day with family or friends. Catalonia's geographical variety has provided golf course designers with ideal locations for these sporting facilities. The renowned golf course architects Javier Arana and Ramn Espinosa, working with pioneering golfers like Severiano Ballesteros, Jos Mara Olazbal, Manuel Piero and ngel Gallardo, have left their signature marks on local courses. There are also some outstanding courses designed by international experts such as Robert Von Hagge, Robert Trent Jones, F. W. Hawtree, Dave Thomas and Greg Norman. All in all, these courses make Catalonian golfing comprehensive and high quality. All of them combine situationspecific difficulty, natural beauty, and respect for the environment. Catalonia's unusually diverse geography makes its golf courses even more attractive. Despite its small size, Catalonia is home to a rich and varied landscape, where one can travel from the golden shores of a quiet cove to a snowy mountain top in the Pyrenees by way of lush, green forests or open planes in less than an hour. Golfers who come to Catalonia will thus be able to play surrounded by beautiful countryside, and to choose as well from a rich history of art, cuisine, entertainment, modernity and more. Because Catalonia is brimming with attractions: Romanesque churches and mediaeval castles, verdant nature parks and snowy slopes, secluded coves, over 300 museums of all types -including some dedicated to the works of Dal, Mir, Picasso and Gaud-, thousands of restaurants in which to enjoy a wide range of cuisines -including the establishments of internationally acclaimed chefs like Ferran Adri, Carme Ruscalleda or Santi Santamara-, the universal and cosmopolitan city of Barcelona, etc. What more could you ask for?

A thousand fairways for the best

Costa Brava
Costa Brava, in northern Catalonia, was named one of the 10 best emerging golf destinations by the International Association of Golf Tour Operators in 2000. Located near the region's coves and beaches, Costa Brava golf courses, including the prestigious PGA Catalunya Resort, are comprehensive and close to each other. Flat or hilly, with a wide range of vegetation and strategically placed lakes, close the sea or nestled under the Pyrenees, these venues do justice to the distinction awarded to the region.
Club de Golf Bonmont. Mont-roig del Camp. Costa Daurada.
Costa Daurada
The micro-climate along the coast of Tarragona, south of Barcelona, enables play throughout much of the year in short sleeves. Here visitors will find courses created by Robert Trent Jones Jr. on wild seaside terrain, or by Greg Norman, commissioned to design two of the three new PortAventura courses at a site reminiscent of Scottish links. And, just 5 minutes away, lies the PortAventura theme park, with its rides and hotel resorts, perfect for enjoying with the family.
Real Club de Golf El Prat. Terrassa. Catalunya Central.
Barcelona and its surroundings:

The golf courses in this region, near the city of Barcelona, offer a wide choice of locations and features. Spread out between the coast and the inland regions, they can be found winding among vineyards, by the sea, at the foot of the Montseny Nature Park or next to Montserrat Mountain. Some of the courses have been chosen by leading amateurs and even some professionals to train, thanks to the technical and strategic level of the facilities.
Aravell Golf. Montferrer-Castellb. Pirineus.
Pirineus
Enjoying a round of golf surrounded by the soaring peaks of the Pyrenees is a true luxury. As members of Golf Valls del Pirineu, a new grouping that unifies golfing in an exceptional location still refreshingly free of mass tourism, these venues offer singular settings requiring maximum precision and skill. Breathtakingly beautiful, high-quality courses that claim the hearts of golfers and lure them back again. The region's proximity to several outstanding ski resorts and the quality of its hotels further enhance the course's allure.
Costa Brava
Calella de Palafrugell. Palafrugell. Costa Brava.
Flat and hilly, lively and calm, blue and green... Costa Brava is doubly attractive for visitors. Its enviable location at the point where the Pyrenees meet the Mediterranean gives rise to its diversity and an array of tourist attractions. Also of note are its proximity to both Barcelona and to the border of France, as well as its excellent connections by plane to the main Spanish and European cities via Girona airport, one of the fastest-growing in Europe. The large number of coves and beaches for enjoying the sun and sea is one of the defining features of the Costa Brava, which is home to both quiet seaside villages and bustling tourist centres. The coastal resort towns (Cadaqus, Roses, Begur, Palafrugell, Palams, Platja d'Aro, Sant Feliu de Guxols, Tossa de Mar or Lloret de Mar) offer everything needed to ensure that visitors have a satisfying stay in an unbeatable climate. As for nature, don't miss Cap de Creus Park, the Medes Islands and Aiguamolls de l'Empord, all sites of great ecological and scenic value.
With regard to culture, the region is home to an array of monuments and archaeological sites that is hard to top. The mediaeval inland towns of Peratallada, Pals and Monells, the ruins of Empries (the first Greek colony on the Iberian Peninsula) and the many historical sites of the city of Girona, with its cathedral, Old Town and Jewish Quarter, are just a few outstanding examples. The mythical Daliniano Triangle is worth special mention; the vertices of which are Figueres and the Salvador Dal museum; Cadaques, with the artist's home in Portlligat, and the castle Pbol, where Gala the artist's muse lived. The excellent regional cuisine, one of the richest and most traditional in Catalonia, the health and wellness facilities and the gorgeous inland landscapes round out a perfect leisure offer to savour between games.

Costa Daurada
Roman amphitheatre. Tarragona. Costa Daurada.
A long line of white sand beaches are the hallmark of the Costa Daurada, a place of placid beauty discovered by the ancient Romans more than 2,000 years ago. A wealth of remnants from those early origins can still be seen, primarily in the city of Tarragona and its surroundings, and the monument complex as a whole has been declared an official UNESCO World Heritage Site. The main tourist attractions are close by: Salou, Cambrils, L'Hospitalet de l'Infant, L'Ametlla de Mar, Calafell or Torredembarra, all internationally renowned for their wide range of leisure activities, excellent seafood, water sports and modern, comprehensive golf courses. Costa Daurada is home to the PortAventura theme park complex, a sprawling amusement park offering rides and shows for the whole family. The list of the region's inland and coastal attractions is extensive. With regard to culture and architecture, the monasteries of the Cistercian Route (Poblet, Santes Creus in the same province and Vallbona de les Monges
in neighbouring Lleida), the Modernist Route in Reus, the Tarragona and Tortosa cathedrals, the mediaeval village of Montblanc and the city of Valls, birthplace of the region's emblematic "human castles" or "towers" all stand out. As for nature, the Ebro River Delta and Ports and Montsant nature parks are the primary attractions, as well as the Prades Mountains nature reserve, all of which are ideally suited for cycling and trekking. El Priorat is also worth a visit, a wild, authentic county responsible for producing some of the world's best wines. The Costa Daurada offers excellent transportation links, including an extensive road network, the Camp de Tarragona high-speed train station and the Reus airport, which is both the final destination and departure point for numerous international flights.

Barcelona and its surroundings:

Barcelona view from the Parc Gell. Barcelona.
Barcelona, the capital of Catalonia, is one of Europe's most dynamic, modern and cosmopolitan cities. It is also home to a considerable historical and cultural legacy that dates back some two thousand years to the ancient Roman city of Barcino and spans a wide range of architectural styles (Romanesque, Gothic, Baroque, Modernist), including some of the most avant-garde and daring structures to be seen today. The ingenious work of Gaud (the Sagrada Familia, the Pedrera, Casa Batll or Park Gull), the Gothic Quarter, the Ramblas and several singular museums (the Picasso Museum, the Mir Foundation or the Catalonia National Art Museum) are just some of the must-see attractions in a city that lives with one eye to the sea and has long been known for its dynamic business, holiday and leisure life. To all this we have to add world-class accommodations and restoration that is sure to please locals and new arrivals alike.
We should not forget the well-kept city beaches, among the few in the world that can be reached by subway. Barcelona is truly one of a kind. Barcelona's charm radiates outward to encompass the coastal and inland towns and cities around it, one of which, Sant Cugat del Valls, is home to Catalonia's first golf course, which was built in the 1920s. Other major cities include Terrassa, Sabadell, Vic, Manresa, Vilafranca del Peneds, Matar and Sitges, all with a grand tradition of history and landmarks. No journey inland through the province of Barcelona would be complete without a visit to Montserrat Mountain, a Catalonian symbol, the forests of Montseny Nature Park or the rich monumental, historical and ethnic heritage of the former industrial colonies that once thrived on the banks of the Ter and Llobregat rivers.

This golf region spans an extensive tract of verdant land that runs from northern Catalonia (the Pyrenees and Vall d'Aran) to Terres de Lleida in the west. The tourist opportunities are endless: breathtaking landscapes and towns fit for postcards, imposing mountains, untamed rivers, flora and fauna in their natural state, churches and sanctuaries built in the purest Romanesque style, including those of Vall de Bo, which are listed in the catalogue of World Heritage monuments. The Pyrenees are full of ecologically priceless nature reserves (Aigestortes i Estany de Sant Maurici National Park, the Cad-Moixer Nature Park, the Garrotxa Volcanic Area Nature Park), which rival golf greens in emerald splendour. The region moreover has several exceptional places to engage in adventure sports, hunting, fishing, skiing, trekking, rock climbing, mountain biking, white-water rafting, kayaking and other active tourism activities. The offer is topped off by world-class cuisine based on regional specialities and quality local products, including
savoury mushrooms and traditional sausages. There is also an extensive selection of rural accommodations offering the full range of amenities and services. Further south, the city of Lleida, which can be reached by road, regular or high-speed train and from the new Lleida-Alguaire airport, beckons visitors with an endless array of shops and monuments.
