Frequently Asked Questions

When is the best time to plan a golf trip to Alt Empordà?

We've found late spring (April-May) and early autumn (September-October) offer ideal conditions for golf here. You'll enjoy comfortable temperatures, fewer crowds than peak summer, and the courses are typically in superb shape. Avoid July and August; it gets hot and busy with beach tourists.

What kind of golf experience can I expect from the three courses in Alt Empordà?

You'll discover a fantastic mix here, from the challenging links-style layout at Empordà Golf's Links course to the more traditional parkland feel of its Forest course. Peralada Golf offers a beautiful, slightly more forgiving round with stunning views. It's a region where quality trumps quantity, providing diverse challenges for any golfer.

Is Alt Empordà a good destination for a golf trip if I'm also interested in culture and local experiences?

Absolutely, it's one of our favorites for combining golf with genuine Catalan culture. You're right on the doorstep of Figueres, home to the Salvador Dalí Theatre-Museum, which is a must-see. The charming medieval villages and the rugged Costa Brava coastline are also incredibly easy to explore between rounds.

How easy is it to get around Alt Empordà to play the different courses and explore the region?

We strongly recommend renting a car for your trip to Alt Empordà. While the courses are relatively close, public transport isn't ideal for hopping between them or exploring the charming small towns and coastal spots. You'll appreciate the freedom to discover hidden gems at your own pace.

What's the typical cost range for a round of golf in Alt Empordà, and are there any deals to look out for?

Expect green fees to generally range from €70-€120, depending on the course and season. We've often found better value by booking multi-round packages directly with the resorts, especially if you plan to play Empordà Golf's two courses. Always check for twilight rates too; they can offer significant savings.
