A number of international competitions take place at this venue much to the satisfaction of the European golfing world’s most demanding professionals. Atalaya is a members’ club open to green fee paying guests.The Atalaya Old Course is a classical par-72 18-hole course designed in 1968 by Bernhard von Limburger, it has a series of generous Bermuda-lawn fairways, strategically-positioned bunkers and elevated greens. It is a typical open walking parkland course that represents a challenge for players with either a high or low handicap. Risky play with a good score is possible as long as you are prepared for the course to ‘bite back’. Players will need to make a very special effort in the most complicated areas of the well-established Old Course.
