Le Robinie Golf Club
On the south of Lake Maggiore, Le Robinie Golf Club is the unique course designed by the 'Golden Bear' Jack Nicklaus in Italy.
When, in the early 1990s, between Olgiate and Solbiate Olona, Jack Nicklaus found himself facing around seventy hectares of flat ground destined to become the “Le Robinie” golf course, he had no doubts about what needed to be done: dig, dig, dig.
So bulldozers moved around two million cubic metres of earth and gravel to form a masterpiece of dips, amphitheatres, terraced bunkers and lakes that bear the unmistakable imprint of the “Golden Bear”. A hundred golf courses worldwide bear the same signature, but there is only one in Italy, this one! A masterpiece already considered one of the best in Europe.
Services: driving range, night lighting, putting green, short game area, bunker, golf cart, electric and manual trolleys, bag rental, pro shop, restaurant, lounge bar, patio and terrace overlooking the golf course, fitness area with gym, swimming pool and sauna.
