About Pinheiros Altos Golf Course
Style: Championship Parkland | Course Length: 6,187 m (combined) | Par: 36 per loop
The 27 holes at Pinheiros Altos were crafted by two acclaimed architects: the original 18 by American designer Ronald Fream, and an additional nine by Portuguese architect George Santana da Silva, opened in 2007. Today, the course is arranged into three distinctive nine-hole loops — The Pines (Pinheiros), The Corks (Sobreiros), and The Olives (Oliveiras) — each offering its own challenges, character, and views.
Pinheiros Altos blends rolling fairways, umbrella pines, water features, and natural Algarve landscapes to create a varied and rewarding test for golfers of all handicaps. Whether you favour strategic shot-making, wide landing areas, or water-guarded greens, the course’s flexibility ensures every golfer finds a loop they love.
From the opening tee of each course, players enjoy views of the impressive clubhouse — a stylish, welcoming hub that reflects the resort’s luxury status.
