Alhaurin Golf covers an area of over 1,150,000 m² and is built at considerable height, in a dry climate, thus making it especially suitable for playing all year round. The design of Alhaurin has managed to preserve the natural contours, with changing fairways that run up and down, adding to it a particularly attractive charm. The wide diversity of fairways forces the player to carefully think before choosing the club and the type of stroke. This is why Alhaurin is considered a technical course that offers a challenge to experienced players but it also represents a test to evaluate the progress of the amateurs.Alhaurín has a fairly comprehensive children school favoured by its large practising facilities, like a small 9-hole course and the impressive par-three 18-hole course, very appropriate for practising new players, but also used frequently by children and youngsters that have an early start in learning this interesting sport. The complex, which includes a Horse-Riding Club, has a total of three courses and 45 holes.The fairways are long and narrow, what makes necessary the trace straight shots in order to avoid the numerous bunkers and water and forest hazards.Alhaurin is considered a different golf course altogether and, at the present time, one of the best on the Costa del Sol. Located in the municipality of Alhaurín el Grande, behind the mountains of Mijas, at an altitude of 340 metres above sea level on a large green space on the mountainside, it affords panoramic views and surroundings of indescribable beauty.Designed by Severiano Ballesteros, it was though out, right from the start, as one of the most ambitious golf projects in Spain, breaking the mould of the classic type of courses usually found in the Costa del Sol. Ballesteros design proposal totally respected the endemic vegetation, and the excellent orientation and superb climate did the rest.The Alhaurin complex can be reached either from the capital city, Málaga, going through Alhaurín de la Torre and Alhaurín el Grande, or from the Costa del Sol, by two roads that go up from Fuengirola; one borders the picturesque village of Mijas. Both accesses, in excellent conditions, will take us to Alhaurín el Grande, about 15 km from the Mediterranean coast. The climbing is done in the middle of a landscape of sierras, through wide forest areas.The setting of the Club, with its diverse sports facilities, is one of the prettiest of the whole place.
