Course Report

The clubhouse at Golf Club Verona has been recognized as one of the most beautiful country clubhouses in Italy, offering both gourmet cuisine and panoramic terrace views over the course and hills.

About

Golf Club Verona is a scenic 18-hole, par 72 course established in 1963 and designed by John Harris, Alvise Rossi Fioravanti, and Baldovino Dassu. Rolling through the Garda hills near Lake Garda, the course features raised greens, broad wavy fairways, and limited water hazards, providing a memorable test for all skill levels. The elegant clubhouse and restaurant offer classic Italian hospitality.

Caddie Tip

Course management is crucial here: the first nine holes are tighter and shorter, demanding accuracy from the tee, while the back nine provides wider landing areas but is much longer. Pay special attention to raised greens—approach play must be precise to avoid tricky up-and-downs.

The Main Challenge

The biggest test at Golf Club Verona comes from its dramatic elevation changes and sloping lies, particularly on the back nine, which is both longer and more exposed to wind. Raised greens throughout demand precision with both approach shots and short game, punishing overly aggressive or wayward play.

The Good

Golfers consistently praise the tranquil setting amid vineyards and rolling hills, providing both serene views and strategic shots. The elegant Italian clubhouse and excellent on-site restaurant set Golf Club Verona apart, making it a destination golfers enjoy returning to for both the golf and the social experience.

The Not So Good

Some visitors would appreciate faster play, particularly during busier periods, and mention that the altitude changes and raised greens can be challenging for less experienced or less mobile players. Additional on-course signage and updated practice range surfaces are occasionally requested.
