La Cañada Golf Club | |
| La Cañada Golf Club was the first municipal golf course in Andalusia due to an impeccable design by Robert Trent Jones (Holes 10-18) and Dave Thomas (Holes 1-9) and the effort made by caddies and workers from the village of Guadiaro. Challenging fairways, fast greens, large groves of indigenous trees and spectacular views of the Mediterranean make up an ideal course for those who want to bask in the sun and enjoy being surrounded by nature. The golf courses tradition has been combined with the development of junior golf talent. At present, 240 pupils are enrolled at La Cañada Golf Club, which is considered to be the first junior golf school in Andalusia. Due to its long-standing history, the Spanish Golf Federation has decided to hold the European Youths Championship at this venue. Its fantastic Mediterranean style Clubhouse, pride and joy of all Members, an Andalusian style hall holds a beautiful photographic collection of the golf course past and present and the Club Founder Members. |

| Patrizia's comment: |
This is a good course and not expensive for what it is. La Cañada is quite hilly but you can still play it walking. | | |
