El Encín Golf
El Encín Golf · Centro, Madrid
Por Top 100 Golf Courses ·
The course at El Encin is located half an hour’s drive from the centre of Madrid, just off the main highway to Zaragoza, and it’s the golfing centerpiece of a small 40-bedroom resort that opened for business in 2011, with a sun terrace, swimming pool and restaurant available to golfers to while away the hours when they’re not playing.
The course is laid out as two returning lines on a relatively flat landscape, characterised by an abundance of variously-shaped bunkers, expansive sandy waste areas and imaginatively contoured greens. Two lakes offer visual spectacle and an element of aquatic menace at a couple of holes on the back nine of what is a very engaging layout.
We contacted architect Rick Baril of von Hagge, Smelek and Baril and asked a few questions about El Encin. Click the link to read more: El Encin Q&A with Rick Baril.
