FURNAS COURSE - DESCRIPTION
Located on the Ilha de São Miguel
this course was originally created by Mackenzie Ross as only
having nine holes. In 1986 Cameron Powell extended them so
successfully to the regular 18 that all the new holes feel as
though it was designed as one initial course. The course is
located in the Furnas valley which is famous for its tropical
vegetation and hot springs together with its breathtaking views
typical to the Azores. The fairways are undulating and mainly
lined with trees providing an interesting game. The excellent
greens tend to be elevated making them just that bit more of a
challenge.
