Frequently Asked Questions

What's the best time of year to play Golf club Gli Ulivi, and how does the Italian climate affect the experience?

We highly recommend visiting in spring-April to May-or early autumn-September to October. During these months, the weather is perfectly mild, and the olive groves that give the course its name are at their most beautiful, offering a stunning backdrop. Avoid the peak summer heat; it can make those uphill walks quite challenging.

What kind of challenge can golfers expect from Gli Ulivi, and is it suitable for all handicaps?

Gli Ulivi offers a genuinely enjoyable test for golfers of all levels, but don't mistake its beauty for a lack of challenge. The undulating terrain, often framed by ancient olive trees, demands thoughtful shot placement, especially on your approach shots. Higher handicappers will appreciate the forgiving fairways, while lower handicappers will find plenty of strategic opportunities to test their precision.
