Marrakech has become a very popular golf destination.

The first golf course was inaugurated in Marrakech in 1923 and since then more than a dozen courses have been built to the delight of golf enthusiasts.

A spectacular, hilly, bumpy course, with hills and blind starts. In a word, a course strewn with pitfalls with huge bunkers that defend each green.

To know: Golf means huge amounts of water. The city of Marrakech, which, as we all know, is located in the desert, had to develop a solution that was not only economically acceptable but also environmentally friendly.  A wastewater treatment plant was then created to treat the city's wastewater, which is then used to irrigate the golf courses. The groundwater table is thus totally preserved!

Agenda : From 9 to 16 December 2018, the 3rd edition of the "FootGolf World Cup 2018" will be held. 36 teams and 400 players from 5 continents are present to participate in this edition organized by the French and Moroccan FootGolf associations.
