Key Features of the Course

1. Michel Gayon's Signature and Tree-Lined Fairways

  • The most defining characteristic of the course is the mature stone pine trees lining almost every hole. The narrow fairway structures require players to precisely calculate both shot angle and distance.

2. Strategic Water Hazards and Bunkers

  • The 7 natural lakes integrated into the course directly influence the game's strategy. Certain holes positioned right along the water's edge, combined with 63 cleverly placed bunkers, keep the risk-and-reward balance exceptionally high.

3. Championship Standards

  • The Old Course has successfully hosted many prominent international tournaments, including the European Senior Tour. With its fast greens and technical layout, it serves as an excellent test for both professionals and experienced amateurs.

4. Part of the Region's Largest Golf Complex

  • Gloria Golf Club, featuring the Old Course, the New Course, and the 9-hole Verde Course, stands as the largest golf complex in Turkey and one of the largest in Europe. This provides players with a vast variety of playing options at a single destination
