Veneto golf destination – Italy’s diverse golf region between Lake Garda and the Adriatic Sea When I think of golf in Veneto, I think of contrasts: a challenging round in the morning with views of olive groves and hills, an espresso in the piazza in the afternoon, pasta and a glass of Amarone in the evening. Veneto is not purely a ‘golf region’ – it is a complete package of sport, landscape, culture and enjoyment. And that is precisely what makes this destination so appealing. Golf in Veneto – Location & Diversity Veneto is located in north-eastern Italy and stretches from the eastern shore of Lake Garda via Verona and the Euganean Hills to the Adriatic coast near Jesolo. Within a maximum of 60–90 minutes, you can reach a wide variety of courses – hilly, flat, park-like or resort-oriented. For a golf holiday in Veneto, this means: You can combine several characters in one trip. The top golf courses in Veneto ⛳ Golf Club Verona For many, the most challenging course in the region. Technically demanding, slightly hilly, excellent course maintenance. Precise course management is what counts here – those who think strategically will be rewarded. Not a place to ‘hit blindly’. Ideal for: ambitious players and groups with sporting aspirations. ⛳ Golf Club Ca’ degli Ulivi Located above Garda – panoramic views guaranteed. The course is varied, partly hilly and requires clean irons onto the green. The view of the lake makes every round special. Highlight: sunset on the club terrace. ⛳ Padova Golf Club 27 holes in the Euganean Hills. Parkland character, lots of peace and quiet, wide fairways, old trees. Here you can play in a relaxed atmosphere, but it’s by no means boring. The combination of nature and layout is really impressive. ⛳ Golf Club Frassanelle An insider tip for connoisseurs. Historic park, old villas, dramatic landscape with rocks and caves. Golfing here feels almost a bit British – stylish, quiet, classic. ⛳ Jesolo Golf Club Modern, flat, lots of water hazards – championship layout on the Adriatic coast. Perfect for a golf holiday by the sea. Here you can play competitively and then head straight to the beach or the resort. ⛳ Asolo Golf Club 27 varied holes in the hilly hinterland. Technically exciting, scenically stunning and rarely overcrowded. If you want to experience Veneto intensively, you should play here. Lake Garda golf region – the eastern side Important: When we talk about golf in Veneto, we are referring to the eastern side of Lake Garda around Verona. The courses are mostly slightly elevated, offer spectacular views and are challenging. Perfect for: * 3–5 night golf getaway * Combination of golf & Verona * Sporty, ambitious groups Golf & sea – Adriatic coast of Veneto Around Jesolo, modern resort golf combines with beach holidays. Flat courses, wide fairways, wind-prone holes – here, the weather also plays a tactical role. Ideal for: * Golf & beach holidays * Couples * Relaxed weekly programmes Best time to travel for golf in Veneto * April–June: perfect conditions, lush green fairways * September–October: my clear recommendation – stable weather, less traffic, top course quality * Summer: start early, then head to the pool or lake The climate is mild and very suitable for golf.

We are around twenty kilometers from the Venetian Lagoon, a World Heritage site: either before or after an obligatory tour of the Serenissima, or better Venice, golf lovers simply cannot miss playing a match at the Golf Club Ca’ della Nave in Martellago, a gem designed by Arnold Palmer on terrain dominated by the aristocratic majesty of the 16th century Villa Grimani Morosini. The great American champion who designed the course in the mid-1980s perhaps drew inspiration from Venice when he decided to insert artificial lakes and water hazards onto no less than 12 of the 18 championship holes – but not even the 9 executive holes are exempt from red stakes! The most difficult is Hole 2, a par 4 of 370 meters, picturesque and rolling with the lake flanking it on the right for the length of the fairway. Two bunkers there awaiting the landing of your first shot and another to defend the entrance to the green complicate things considerably. Hole 14 is also spectacular, a par 4 of 278 meters, where the fairway is an islet in the middle of a large lake: from the tee, you have to cross a small bridge to reach the ball, and the same must be done to reach the green which, in addition to the water in the front, is also defended by three bunkers. Technical Details Course: 18 holes, Par 72, 6366 meters Architect: Arnold Palmer Topography: flat with artificial hills and undulated fairways. Distinctive features: you can recognize everywhere the American style. The play is amusing thanks to artificial slopes and well-placed water hazards. Pro’s comments Arnold Palmer’s hand is clearly seen in the design of this splendid course; lots of water, bunkers on the dogleg bends and in defense of the greens which are wide and welcoming. Much about this course is already revealed by Hole 2, a handicap 1; almost 400 meters from the furthest tee, water on the right and a green defended by a bunker on the left; you will find water another 11 times by the time you have completed the round but don’t be discouraged; the course is not that difficult and everyone will have a ball. Bravo Arnie!!!
