Golf courses in Cerdanya

Next, we review the main golf clubs, tournaments and events in Cerdanya, as well as the lifestyle attractions in the best wellness facilities and residential developments in the region.

Real Club Golf Cerdaña, an almost century-old institution

Cerdanya boasts the oldest golf club in Catalonia and one of the ten most historic in all of Spain. Located in the peaceful town of Bolvir, the Real Club Golf Cerdaña opened its doors in 1929, coinciding with the Universal Exposition held in Barcelona that same year, and was inaugurated by King Alfonso XIII.

After relocating in the 1940s, the Real Club Golf Cerdaña has continued to host important national and international tournaments, welcoming some of the world's best players and numerous other prominent figures. Currently, the club's courses offer 27 holes and, according to the majority opinion among golf enthusiasts, provide the best facilities and views in all of Cerdanya. Which is saying something. 

Fontanals Golf Club, discovering the concept of golfness

If history and tradition are the greatest assets of the Real Club Golf, the Fontanals Golf Club offers facilities at the forefront of the best golf resorts in Europe. It's no coincidence that the concept of "golfness" has even been coined at the Fontanals de Cerdanya resort, a combination of golf and wellness that highlights the wellness services offered at the club.

In addition to its 18 holes, which include options for all levels and types of golfers, the Fontanals Golf Club boasts a multi-sports and specialty center. Alongside six state-of-the-art padel courts, there is a gym with equally cutting-edge Technogym equipment. These facilities are staffed by specialized professionals and personal trainers, capable of helping each member reach their peak performance level, indoors or outdoors.

As for additional services and activities, the Fontanals Golf Club features a heated indoor pool and offers programs such as Zumba, Pilates, yoga, Spinning, and Aquagym, among others. The range of treatments also includes services from a nutritionist, sports medicine specialist, physiotherapist, and rehabilitation specialist.

Sant Marc Puigcerdà, enjoy golf in Cerdanya 

Puigcerdà, the capital of the Cerdanya region, boasts the Sant Marc Golf Club, one of the most active in training new players. Although its activities began in 2006, it was in 2018 that the club's facilities underwent a significant upgrade to meet the growing demand.

The Sant Marc Golf Club is unique in that its 18 holes are situated between the shores of two natural lakes, creating a truly unparalleled setting along its more than 3 km length. Within this expansive area, there is a dedicated practice area for beginners, offered through the club's Golf School. The club's educational offerings are complemented by language courses and other programs for all ages. 

The major summer golf events in Cerdanya

Although golf is by no means limited to the summer months, most competitions in Cerdanya are scheduled during the summer season. These tournaments are as exciting for players as they are for spectators and for years, they have been made possible thanks to the support of brands like Engel & Völkers, a company with a strong presence in the Cerdanya’s social life. 

Puigcerdà Golf Grand Prix

It's the highlight of the Cerdanya golf tournament calendar. Coinciding with the arrival of those who own second homes in one of the region's charming towns, the Real Club de Golf Cerdaña hosts its Puigcerdà Grand Prix, now in its 16th year. Engel & Völkers has been the main sponsor of the event every year.

The Puigcerdà Grand Prix takes place at the end of August, as always in the Greensome format, one of the most popular among amateur golfers. It's an amateur tournament, but that doesn't mean it compromises on quality, as anyone who visits the Real Club Golf Cerdaña will discover. 

Fontanals Golf Club in Cerdanya

 With already fourteen editions, the Fontanals Teams tournament at the Fontanals Golf Club is firmly established as one of the region's premier tournaments. This year's championship format is divided into knockout rounds. It is, therefore, a very demanding competition that begins in April and culminates in October with the grand final. It's the perfect opportunity to enjoy top-level golf in Cerdanya.

Since last year, Engel & Völkers has been one of the main sponsors of the Fontanals Golf Club tournament, which is being held in both individual and team formats. Without a doubt, it's a very special competition in the heart of Cerdanya.
