Blessed with the same indigenous cork oak canvas, Michael King has crafted a more forgiving but equally appealing golf course with wider fairways and landing areas.
A shorter test than its sibling Ribagolfe Lakes but still measuring more than 6,800 yards, Ribagolfe Oaks was designed by former Ryder Cup player Michael King in colaboration with European Tour Design.
Blessed with the same indigenous cork oak canvas, King has crafted a more forgiving but equally appealing golf course with wider fairways and landing areas.
The huge, moderately contoured greens, however, provide a stiff test if you’re to score well here.
Both Ribagolfe courses are set within a forest of cork oak trees and the design makes full use of the sweeping undulations of the site, providing many spectacular golf holes across valleys and lakes.
You can be sure that you will be surrounding by nothing but nature around you.
