Golf Bastide de La Salette
Set in a pristine natural landscape
Nestled between hills and *garrigue* scrubland, Golf Bastide de la Salette offers a sporting escape amidst nature, right on the doorstep of Marseille. Just minutes from the city center, this 18-hole course unfolds within a quintessential Provençal setting, featuring pine forests, terraced slopes, and valleys carved by the Mediterranean terrain.
Laid out across rolling landscape, the course features a mix of sloping fairways, flatter sections, and strategic elevation changes that test both precision and stamina. Players navigate a preserved natural environment filled with the scents of pine and thyme, all set against a backdrop of spectacular views of the Garlaban massif and the hills immortalized by Marcel Pagnol.
