La Orquidea Golf

The golf club La Orquidea Golf is situated in the city of Los Cardales in the Argentinian province of Buenos Aires. It lies in the middle of a field of orchids and between high trees, bordering on a residential area. The golf club La Orquidea Golf can be quickly reached from Los Cardales via the RP 6 in just eight minutes, while the trip from Buenos Aires via the RN 8 takes more than an hour. The club initially opened a 9-hole course in 1991, which was expanded to an 18-hole course with par 72 in 1991. The design stems from golf course architect Federico Maurer as well as Federico Bauer. The 6,492-meter-long course features more than 20 fairways, 24 greens, several doglegs, white sand bunkers, and many water hazards that can be found at 10 of the 18 holes. The most interesting holes are hole 2, boasting a large island green, and hole 8 with a peninsula green. Four different options for teeing off allow for different difficulty levels, so that beginners as well as experienced golfers can find the appropriate tee. La Orquidea Golf is considered one of the best golf courses in Argentina, also providing a 300-meter driving range with 30 tees as well as a putting green for the short game in its practice area.
