The Club

Set on the Alpe Cimbra plateau at over 1,100 metres, Golf Club Folgaria offers broad mountain fairways, clean alpine air and a layout that feels generous from the tee but steadily more exacting around the greens. It is one of those courses where the rhythm of the day is shaped by altitude, weather and long views over woodland and pasture.

Beyond the Green

Exclusive Experiences

Secrets found in no guidebook, curated by our concierge.

Art

·

A few minutes from the course, Maso Spilzi offers a small but meaningful immersion into the rural history of Alpe Cimbra. It is not a blockbuster museum stop, and that is exactly its strength: after a round at altitude, the house, tools and local storytelling help you read the landscape around Folgaria with more depth, turning woods and meadows into a lived cultural setting rather than just a backdrop.

Insider Tip

Wellness

·

If Folgaria is at its best when played as part of a mountain reset, the Ecchen biotope is one of the easiest ways to extend that feeling. This gentle natural area invites a low-effort walk through water, reeds and plateau silence, making it ideal after 18 holes when you still want to stay outdoors but no longer need another athletic activity. It works particularly well for travellers building a slower, restorative golf weekend.

Insider Tip

Wine

·

Around Folgaria, the pleasure pairing is not only wine in the strict sense but the wider Trentino habit of combining mountain dairy products with crisp sparkling bottles and precise local whites. A good tasting stop after golf can give the day a distinctly alpine identity: less formal than a major winery experience, more rooted in altitude, pasture and clean flavours that suit the environment you have just played through.

Insider Tip

Food

Malga Millegrobbe — Cucina d'Altipiano

Passo Coe, Folgaria (TN) · 5 min dal club

At Passo Coe, minutes from the course, this historic mountain dairy serves no-frills alpine cooking: steaming polenta, hand-sliced speck, plateau cheeses that still taste of hay. The place is as unpolished and genuine as the landscape around it.

Insider Tip

Come at weekday lunch: local shepherds take the wooden tables and you'll rarely find a tourist in sight.

Secret Spot

Luserna — L'Ultimo Villaggio Cimbro

Luserna, Altopiano di Folgaria (TN) · 15 min dal club

Luserna is a village outside of time: a handful of stone houses where Cimbrian, a medieval Germanic tongue, is still spoken by a dwindling few who've kept it alive for seven centuries on this plateau. The silence here has a different quality — older, denser — and the small Cimbrian cultural museum tells a story almost no one knows.

Insider Tip

Walk to the church of Sant'Anna at dusk: the raking light on the eastern peaks and the 15th-century bell tower compose a scene that feels painted rather than real.
