Pinheiros Altos Golf

Pinheiros Altos is a 27-hole golf course at Quinta do Lago, arranged as the Pines, Corks and Olives nines. Tree-lined and hillier sections contrast with the lakes and island green of the Olives loop. It is a private-resort golf operation; visiting players should arrange eligibility and the intended combination directly with reservations.

About the course

Pinheiros Altos sits within the Quinta do Lago area and combines three nine-hole loops in one 27-hole course. Pines, Corks and Olives have different identities: Corks looks towards valleys and hills, while Olives winds between lakes and includes an island green. Pines mixes older and newer holes in a tree-lined setting. The choice of two nines therefore changes the character of an 18-hole round. Returning golfers can ask for another combination to explore more of the course during the same holiday.

Arrange eligibility and the intended round directly with reservations before planning a visit to this private golf resort. Ask which two nines are included, what handicap details are needed and whether suitable hire equipment is available for your group. Soft spikes are required, and buggies must follow designated paths. The clubhouse has private members’ areas as well as its general facilities, so discuss any plans for non-playing companions with the golf team. A Quinta do Lago or Almancil base keeps the course within the same wider holiday area.

Quinta do Lago Laranjal

Ludo Valley, Loulé · Quinta do Lago

Laranjal is Quinta do Lago’s separate 18-hole course in the Ludo Valley, east of the main resort golf base. Former orange-grove land, rolling fairways and lakes shape the par 72 layout. Its own clubhouse and practice facilities make arrival planning important: a Laranjal reservation is not an arrival at the North and South clubhouse.
