Lugano

Designed as a 9-hole course by the architect Percy Dell, it was subsequently expanded to become an 18 hole course in 1970 by the architect Donald Harradine. This was nothing short of a small miracle as the golf course now stretches over just 32 hectares where most modern course extend over an average of 50 hectares. The difficulty of the holes is varied making the course interesting for both beginners and professionl players.

Today the course unfolds along the Magliasina River on flat terrain between rows of birch, oak, fir and ash trees, rhododendrons, oleanders and azaleas. You will come across squirrels, ducks and a beautiful heron which often lingers by the pond between the tenth and eleventh holes.
