The Montgomerie Marrakech was designed by the international architects office European Golf Design and signed by Colin Montgomerie, 8 times winner of the European Tour. The concern of this construction was to create a high level course adapted to all styles and levels of game, in order for each golfer to enjoy their time.

Tees were placed so that beginners and average players would start without risk, but with a particular challenge to take the best path for good golfers. Bunkers and water hazards are never too far and can encourage a safe play where other will try to cut or directly go for the green.

The Montgomerie Marrakech is a beautiful course, boarded by olive trees, named after famous British golfer Colin Montgomerie, 8 times champion in Europe. It spreads on 63 acres and boasts a breathtaking view on the Atlas and the Koutoubia.

Located on the great Mohammed VI Avenue, close to rail and air infrastructure, the Montgomerie Marrakech disposes of a unique setting at the very heart of Marrakech.

Situated further out of Marrakech, this course has amazing views of the High Atlas Mountains, which are often snow covered providing a spectacular backdrop to your golfing experience. The key features of the course are cavernous bunkers and angular water hazards. The course was designed by Kyle Philips and is 6429 metres in length.

Course Description

Set against the backdrop of the snow-capped Atlas Mountains, Assoufid Golf Club’s 18-hole, par-72 golf course winds its way through a unique, naturally undulating desert landscape. Located 10 km from Marrakech’s Medina – a UNESCO World Heritage site, Assoufid Golf Club provides golfers with an exceptional golfing experience that is excitingly diverse and challenging.

Design

As his first golf course design project, Scottish designer and former European Tour player, Niall Cameron, had the vision to create a desert-style golf course that would look and feel as natural and as integrated into the existing landscape as possible, while maximizing the beautiful views of North Africa’s Atlas Mountains to the south.

Nature

Assoufid Golf Club recognizes the importance of protecting and enhancing its natural environment, in which only 45% of the golf course was planted to minimize water consumption. During construction, a significant number of trees found growing on site were retained, and many more have since been planted, including palm trees, cacti and olive trees.

Clubhouse

Designed to complement the golf course, the Clubhouse is conveniently located on one of Assoufid’s many hills, overlooking the golf course and with unparalleled views of the Atlas Mountains. Open every day, the Clubhouse houses the reception desk and features a Pro Shop, locker rooms with showers, a Private Members’ Lounge and the exclusive, La Colline restaurant.
