Mijas Golf, probably the busiest and most
popular golf pcomplex on the Costa del Sol, has two 18-hole courses
of which the older is Los Lagos, first opened in 1976. Designed
by Robert Trent Jones, it features wide fairways, large raised
greens and an abundance of bunkers and water hazards. Los Lagos
was aptly named for there are eight lakes in and around the course.
 
 Nonetheless, there is virtually no rough
and relatively few trees, giving an overwhelming impression of
freedom and space. But players should still be careful, especially
at difficult holes like the par five 13th: although it looks
deceptively easy from the elevated tees its green is protected
by water to both the right and the left.
At 6.348 metres off the championship tees,
Los Lagos is one of the longest courses on the Costa de Sol.
Incidentally, it is the first club to operate with the new GPS
satellite navigation system on its buggies. (How far to the pin?
Just a second, I'll check with the satellite..) If
you would like to book a golf holiday, playing at any of
the great courses listed on this website please contact
us and we will pass your enquiry to Malaga Holidays. |
