Club de Golf La Cañada, Golf course in San Roque, Spain.
Club de Golf La Cañada is an 18-hole golf course in San Roque featuring fairways lined with cork oak trees and natural terrain variations. The layout incorporates elevation changes and technical design elements throughout its full length.
Robert Trent Jones designed this course in 1982, positioning it as a significant destination within Andalusian golf. The layout reflects the renowned architect's approach to integrating natural terrain into challenging play.
The course integrates Spanish sporting traditions while welcoming international players, requiring specific handicap certifications of 28 for men and 36 for women.
Playing conditions change with the seasons and prevailing winds that sweep across the rolling fairways. Starting your round early in the day helps manage the wind's impact on ball flight and course difficulty.
The cork oak forests surrounding the course are actively managed for cork harvesting, a traditional practice that shapes the landscape's appearance. This sustainable resource use distinguishes the site from typical manicured golf facilities and connects play to local heritage.
