Golf

Between lakes and mountains

Many of Patagonia’s most important golf courses are located in the northern part of the region, providing an ideal setting for some of the must-see tourist experiences of Andean Patagonia, characterized by its landscape of high mountains, lakes, national parks, and the mythical tales that have earned it worldwide recognition.

Near the cities of San Carlos de Bariloche and San Martín de los Andes, you can access five of the region’s most prestigious golf courses. In Bariloche: the Llao Llao Hotel & Resort, Golf – Spa, located 25 km from the city, along the road known as the “Circuito Chico”; and the Arelauquen Golf & Country Club, located across from lake Gutiérrez, 15 minutes from the “Cerro Catedral” (the most important ski resort in South America).

In San Martín de los Andes: Chapelco Golf & Resort, part of the Jack Nicklaus International Golf Club (JNIGC), an exclusive international network of clubs; Valle Escondido Golf Club, located on the hillsides of Chapelco Hill, 6 km from downtown San Martín; and 15 minutes from the city itself, “El Desafío” Mountain Resort, the first course in South America to receive the signature of renowned Australian designer Greg Norman.

The southernmost golf course

Located in Ushuaia, in the province of Tierra del Fuego, 3,072 km from the city of Buenos Aires, the southernmost golf course in the world invites you to a truly unique experience. At the Ushuaia Golf Club, players can navigate short holes, narrow -gently undulating- fairways, and small greens that follow the course of the Pipo river, while the unmistakable west wind makes the game difficult. The 8th hole, dazzling with its unevenness and the river running through it, is an unforgettable challenge.

Golf in the heart of the Pampas

600 km from Buenos Aires lies the city of Santa Rosa, capital of the province of La Pampa province and the gateway to Patagonia. 4 km from the city lies the Santa Rosa Jockey Club, a prestigious complex where excellence is in every detail: it combines American-style holes and nine authentic Pampas holes, with plenty of rolling dunes. Featuring a links-style course with eleven out-of-bound holes, players can showcase their skills on high-quality, perfectly maintained grass. The greens are agrosti (with considerable rolling) and the fairways are natural, predominantly grassy.

In northern Pampa, Trisquelia Golf Club offers an ideal setting for enjoying golf. With a 9-hole course (playable as 18), challenging fairways, lagoons, and high-quality greens, it combines technique and scenery into a unique experience. Home to the Argentine Professional Golf Tour and local tournaments, the club has been declared of municipal interest for its cultural and sporting significance. Open to amateur and professional players, it stands out for its attentive service, competitive level, and charming natural surroundings.
