Golf de Cély, Golf course in Cély, France
Golf de Cély is an 18-hole course with par 72 set across open grounds near Fontainebleau Forest. The facility includes a driving range with multiple stations, a putting green, and practice bunkers for players of different skills.
The course opened in 1990 on land that once held a 14th-century castle. Architects Patrick Fromanger, Jack Nicklaus, and Mark Adam collaborated on its design.
The course is named after the nearby village and reflects how golf has integrated into the local landscape. Visitors experience a blend of sport facilities set within the traditional French countryside.
The course spreads across open terrain, so most visitors find it helpful to use a golf cart for getting around. Equipment rental is available on-site if you do not have your own clubs.
Each hole was designed with multiple routes and strategies, allowing players to choose their approach based on skill level. This design principle from American courses creates different experiences even on repeat visits.
