The Course 

Established in 1974, the golf club was originally a farming estate of 140 hectares, just a few kilometers south of Como, owned by the Panza di Biumo family, who converted it into a modern design residential complex surrounded by two championship golf courses. Golf Club Monticello takes pride in being the first Italian golf club to have 36 holes and is a continuing evolution, entrusted to different signatures, the last ones belonging to Jim FazioBaldovino Dassù, and Graham Cooke.

The Founders’ Course has been recently renamed to honor Alessandro Panza di BiumoMoi Castelli, and Luigi Caccia Dominioni.

The Founders’ Course (former Red Course) is a challenging golf course and a historic venue for the Italian Open, which was played here seven times between 1974 and 1992 and won, amongst others, by Billy Casper from the United States and Australian Greg NormanSeve Ballesteros and Nick Faldo were also among the players who competed during the various Italian Opens at Golf Club Monticello.

The course is slightly undulated, with small greens protected by bunkers and the wide fairways surrounded by high mountains. There are two artificial lakes and densely forested regions with overall ten thousand trees.

The 2024 Alps Tour Grand Final will be played on Golf Club Monticello’s ­– Founders’ Course (6410 meters Par 72 course.)
