Pinheiros Altos
Pinheiros Altos Golf Course located within the well-known Quinta do Lago estate, within the golfing world it is known as providing a mental challenge due to well placed hazards. Bordering the 18,300 hectares of Natural Park of Ria Formosa which provides a habitat for many species of birds and has much interesting vegetation.|Pinheiros Altos is a combination of 27 holes composed by three groups of 9 holes named Oliveiras (Olives), Pinheiros (Pines) and Sobreiros (Corks), respectively. This highly original and distinctive course possesses completely opposing characteristics. The original 18-hole course of Pinheiros Altos was well-known for its contrasting nines. While the first 9-hole are over rolling sandy undergrowth with gentle pine trees, the shorter second 9-hole runs through hills dotted with lakes that present the main obstacle for the golfers on this course.

Generally excellent considering the cost of the round and buggies. The greens were true. The sand levels in the bunkers was inconsistent but on the whole very happy. Enjoyable.

Fairways needs to improve greens and approaches fine

Very friendly staff, course really good condition and good challenge. All the different birds on the estate were an added bonus. We played Pines course twice and each of the other two once over two days. Loved it.

Very easy to make the booking and the staff at Pinheiros Altos were very helpful. The course is quite tight which isn’t a bad thing but had me changing my way of playing. Take plenty of spare balls… quite a bit of water ????.
Only area of improvement I’d recommend would be to rake the bunkers a bit more. Some are lacking a sandy surface to play off.
The absolute result today was playing 18 holes without seeing anyone else. Billionaires golf day.

Played Pines and Corks. Olives a much better 9 - Corks the clearly inferior 9 of the 3. In ok condition but not one of the better courses in Quinta, albeit the cheapest to play.

Toller und abwechslungsreicher Golplatz. Sehr spannendes Design. Service ist sehr freundlich und unkompliziert. Top Platzpflege. Abstände unter den Flights waren gut organisiert.
Absolut empfehlenswert.

Toilettenanlagen müssen besser gereinigt werden. Aber auch teilweise unbedingt erneuert werden.
