Club de Golf Castellterçol

Club de Golf Castellterçol is in Castellterçol, in the province of Barcelona, Catalonia. Founded in 1988 by a group of friends led by Sebastià Soler, it combines a calendar of competitions with a course whose natural surroundings are central to the club’s own description of the place.

For a golfer planning a visit, two features are worth understanding: the club’s approach to irrigation and its changing seasonal landscape. There is also a practical distinction when it comes to eating: the club has no restaurant of its own, but collaborates with a hotel-restaurant in the town.

The course and its natural setting

The club describes the course as ecological and sustainable, pointing to a policy of restricting fairway irrigation to essential areas. That is the specific approach it sets out, rather than a claim that every part of the fairways receives the same watering.

Vegetation changes with the seasons, so the landscape is part of the experience rather than a fixed backdrop. The natural setting also supports wildlife: nesting partridges can be found on the course. These details help explain why the club places its surroundings alongside golf in its account of the course.

The club also highlights the good condition of the course and its irrigation arrangements. Its presentation brings those points together with the policy of limiting fairway watering to the sectors it considers necessary. The emphasis is on both course care and the way irrigation is managed.

Competitions through the year

Senior competitions and monthly events form part of the club’s sporting activity, alongside open tournaments held throughout the year. For visiting golfers interested in competitive play, the open tournaments are a feature to note in the club’s programme.

The calendar is not described solely in terms of open events: senior and monthly competitions also have their place. Together, these are the recurring strands of activity highlighted by the club.

Eating in Castellterçol

There is no on-site club restaurant. Instead, Club de Golf Castellterçol has a collaboration agreement with Hotel-Restaurante La Violeta in Castellterçol. When planning the day, it is useful to distinguish this arrangement with a local establishment from dining facilities operated by the club itself.
