The Circolo Golf Ugolino is an 18 hole par 72 golf course which is 5,672 meters long and has respectively designed with the natural contours of the Chianti slopes inc to produce an outstanding course, threaded through the indigenous vines, olive trees, maritime pines and broom. The course is not long, but demands a high degree of skill. The greens are small and well defended by bunkers. The sloping fairways also present a great challenge. To play Ugolino it´s not just about enjoying a game of golf, it´s to wander through landscaper of great natural beauty surrounded by olive and other fruit trees. It is an unforgettable experience and in his book “fifty places to play golf before your die”, the writer Chris Santella includes Ugolino as one of the fifty.
