Pinheiros Altos - Sobreiros/Oliveiras

Overview: Combining the rugged, elevated challenge of the Sobreiros loop with the technical, water-guarded precision of the Oliveiras loop, this 18-hole configuration at Pinheiros Altos is a masterclass in variety. Starting with the steep ridges and panoramic views of the cork-oak-lined hills, the round concludes with the resort's original back nine, where accuracy is tested by numerous lakes and streams. It is a routing that demands a complete set of golf skills, from the power needed for the mountain-style front nine to the finesse required for the technical island green on the back.

Did You Know? This combination is frequently used for club competitions because it provides such a balanced test. The transition from the "The Corks" (Sobreiros) to "The Olives" (Oliveiras) represents the growth of the resort over three decades, moving from the open, hilly landscape into the more sheltered, lush wetland environment that characterizes the heart of the Quinta do Lago estate.
