Birdie 8 Golf Destination of GAP BAYARD
Again in the cockpit with Michel TEICHET who takes us aboard his plane and his dream destinations…
The Birdie channel: its technical approaches golf, its panoramic discoveries and its dizzying views from the sky…
Michel TEICHET is always accompanied by available pros, their distillation of good advice is received 5/5 and their good mood adds to the desire to join them.
The destination of the day, the Golf of GAP Bayard where Michel TEICHET and Sébastien Saqib were greeted by the director of the place Michel GIRARD before joining the local Pro Anthony Manasseh.
After the fortified sides of Castellane and Digne, Sistern aboard the Durance marks the demarcation between Provence and Dauphiné with the ascent and Col Bayard.
A little before the summit, Gap is called the “soft capital” of the Southern Alps because it is good to live in a sunny climate 300 days a year at 735 m altitude.
7 km away, Bayard Plateau at an altitude of 1 250 m is an oxygenation centre of 200 ha which offers an 18 holes of golf drawn in 1989 by H. Lambert in the middle of a forest that protects winds with very nice views on the park of Ecrins and The hills of the Durance Valley and 60 km of cross-country ski slopes in winter.
For some golfers, the Gap Bayard Golf Course is the reference mountain range: Dream panorama, no artificial noise, pastoral setting and correct elevation.
In view of the interest it arouses, it is advisable to reserve its departure and a cart, especially for those who lack of training.
From the green of the 9th and the departure of the 10, we enjoy an exceptional glance on the valley where the lake and the dam of Serre-Ponçon are encased.
Attention, we do not play 9 holes, because the 9 is at the end of the plateau… with the View!

Camille MUFFAT Trophy
At Valberg Golf Club

Camille MUFFAT Trophy at Valberg Golf Club
This Tuesday, July 12th was both a pleasant and strong moment in intensity.
Camille MUFFAT’s soul hovered above the 1800 meters of the VALBERG GOLF CLUB, each of the persons present for this tribute was certainly a certain gravity during the official speeches of the deputy Mayor Charles-Ange GINESY, of Nelson MONTFORT and Philippe CANDELORO but the good humour and the good words of the two lighthouse guests brought the celebration to what Camille MUFFAT would have wanted: a day of happiness under the sky and the mountain of Valberg.
Nelson MONTFORT did not fail to underline the action of the deputy Mayor Charles-Ange GINESY, Christian GUEMY, president of the Sports Club of Valberg and Virginie MIGNOT, director of the club of Valberg and responsible for tourism in Valberg in the realization of this Event.
The day started around 10:00 by a scramble, luck smiled to the competitors because the weather forecast had a few showers that occurred but without much impact on the course of the event.
As soon as the golf was over, and as we pointed out in the preamble, a sumptuous homage to Camille MUFFAT was followed by the unveiling of the commemorative plaque sealed on the façade of the clubhouse.
This day concluded with a lunch on the theme of the mountain concocted by Stéphane, manager of the Restaurant du Golf and his entire team.
The appointment was taken for 2017.
We thank:
GOTO Protection, Golf plus Cannes as well as the painter Renato for their participation in the awards ceremony.
The great actors of this wonderful day:
