Description

Amelkis Golf Club - the most recent golf course in Marrakech - has a splendid kasbah style clubhouse with a terrace overlooking the course and the Atlas.

The course has integrated the "khettaras", 11th century irrigation works built by Almoravides hydraulics experts.
Its fairways are lined with luxurious villas, century old palm trees, groves of palms and giant papyrus reeds.
The back nine are dominated by water hazards (for ex. the 447 m Par 5 15)
Hole 5 is a difficult Par 4
Hole 18 can be birdied provided you hit a good drive.
It is a tough, subtle course with long Par 3s, large trodden red earth bunkers and "exotic" rough.
You need to be long & put well to hand in a good card here.
