The best way to start 2010 ? A day of Golf

For the one interested, it was in the Los Andes Golf club situated in Carretera Central Km. 23. The venue is actually pretty nice even though it’s only a 9 holes course. The driving range is ok and the putting green is actually in front of the club house (no surprise).

The course itself is pretty narrow with most of the green protected by either Trees, Bunker or Water. It makes it more difficult and enjoyable. Par 3 holes are pretty long with one just under the 200 yards.  The greens are much faster than in Europe, due to weather condition as well as the grass in use. I spend a really great day out there, and lots of memories of Golf in London came up. This course is a good value for money given the possibility to golf in Peru. Expect to spend +/- 400 Soles (130$) all inclusive i.e. Green Fee, Caddy, Renting a set of clubs, Driving range, and obviously the drinks after the games !
