The Marrakech Golf Club Assoufid
About this course
The Marrakech Golf Club Assoufid sits in the Assoufid district south of Marrakech, designed by Niall Cameron and opened in the mid-2000s as part of a residential and resort development. Cameron, a Scottish architect who has worked extensively in Morocco and across the Mediterranean region, shaped the course around the arid landscape characteristic of the area, incorporating native vegetation and working with the natural desert terrain. The routing takes advantage of the relatively flat topography while creating strategic interest through bunkering, water features, and the positioning of olive and palm trees. The course reflects the growing golf infrastructure around Marrakech, which has become a popular destination for European golfers seeking winter sun and access to North African culture. The Atlas Mountains provide a dramatic backdrop to the east and south, visible from many points on the property. The layout accommodates players of varying abilities with multiple tee options, and the design emphasizes width in places while tightening approaches to greens defended by sand and occasional water hazards. Assoufid operates as part of the broader golf offerings in the Marrakech area, which includes several other courses serving both resort visitors and local membership. The club provides standard amenities including practice facilities and dining, catering to an international clientele drawn to the region's climate and proximity to the historic medina and cultural attractions of Marrakech itself.

Getting there
The journey to The Marrakech Golf Club Assoufid begins at Marrakech Menara Airport (RAK), a gateway that has long welcomed travelers to the ochre city, with the club lying roughly twenty minutes south by road. The drive peels away from the bustling medina quarter and follows the Route de l'Ourika into the foothills of the High Atlas, where the urban hum gives way to olive groves and the first glimpses of snow-dusted peaks on the horizon. As the road climbs gently toward Assoufid, the landscape opens into a sun-baked expanse of rolling terrain and desert scrub, framing your arrival at a championship layout that feels both remote and remarkably close to the ancient heart of Morocco.
