The course
According to a tour operator San Lorenzo has been closed for extensive rebuilding since 19 October 2026 and is to reopen in mid-2028. The course itself has not confirmed that on its pages. Before any planning I would ask the golf course.
The two loops of nine holes each form a figure of eight with the clubhouse in the middle. From the white tee the course is 6,247 metres long, from yellow 5,854 metres and from red 5,171 metres.
