Just 30 minutes from central Paris and nestled in the elegant Yvelines countryside near Versailles, Le Golf National stands as one of Europe’s best golf destinations. Designed to meet championship demands yet open to visitors of all standards, this resort combines world-class golf with refined French hospitality.

The Albatros Course at Le Golf National is widely regarded as one of Europe’s finest and most challenging layouts. It combines a stadium-style design with links-like features, offering sweeping fairways, strategic bunkering, and water hazards that come into play on many of its closing holes. Measuring over 7,100 yards from the back tees, it demands accuracy from tee to green and punishes wayward shots with thick rough and tightly contoured greens. Its dramatic finishing stretch delivers a thrilling test and unforgettable views, making it a favourite with tour professionals and visiting golfers alike. This is the course where legends have been made, including Europe’s triumphant 2018 Ryder Cup performance, and it continues to stand as France’s premier championship golf venue.

The Aigle Course may not be as demanding as the Albatros, but it still offers a challenge as well as a true links feel. With its undulating fairways, superb greens and flowing rough, the Aigle is an ideal warm-up before taking on the Albatros.

With practice facilities that include a large driving range and training areas, Le Golf National caters to serious players as well as visiting groups. Its location near Paris in Northern France makes it a popular addition to short golf breaks that combine championship golf with city access.
