Rosso Course
Parco De Medici Golf Club
About this course
Rosso is one of two championship courses at Parco De Medici Golf Club, located on the outskirts of Rome in the Lazio region. The course was designed by Marco Croze, an Italian architect known for routing courses through challenging terrain while maintaining playability across a range of handicaps. Rosso shares the club's expansive parkland setting, which occupies former estate grounds characterized by mature trees, natural water features, and gently rolling topography typical of the Roman countryside. The layout moves through the property with strategic use of the landscape's elevation changes and tree-lined corridors. Water hazards and bunker placement create decision points throughout the routing, with the course demanding both accuracy off the tee and thoughtful approach play. The design balances difficulty with accessibility, offering alternative lines on several holes that reward both aggressive and conservative play. Parco De Medici has hosted regional and national tournaments, establishing itself as a serious competitive venue in central Italy. The club maintains a strong membership base drawn from Rome and surrounding areas, and the dual-course setup—Rosso alongside its sister layout—allows for varied play and tournament hosting. The setting within parkland grounds, combined with the course's technical design, makes it a notable destination for golfers in the Lazio region seeking championship-length play outside the capital.

Getting there
Parco De Medici Golf Club lies within Rome's metropolitan embrace, accessible most directly via Leonardo da Vinci-Fiumicino Airport (FCO), Italy's principal gateway, situated roughly 30 kilometers southwest of the city center - a drive of 45 minutes to an hour depending on Rome's famously unpredictable traffic. The route traces the modern autostrada inland from the coast, then transitions into the quieter residential and agricultural landscapes of the Castelli Romani hills, where the club's manicured grounds emerge amid the verdant countryside that once belonged to the Medici family's Roman estates. For those arriving by private aircraft, Urbe Airport (URB) offers a more intimate alternative, positioned just north of the city and cutting the ground transfer to mere minutes. The final approach winds through tree-lined avenues and gated entrances that speak to the club's storied heritage, delivering you to Parco De Medici Golf Club with the unhurried grace befitting one of Rome's most distinguished sporting addresses.
