Play golf all year round with "Snow Golf"!

Fans of "Golf on snow" or "Snow golf" and international competitions have existed now for a number of years to enable golf addicts to continue doing what they love in every season!

The origins of "Snow golf"
The origins of "Snow golf" are quite controversial. They say that it was already being played in the XVIIth century in Scotland, or even that it was in Canada that a handful of golf lovers had the idea to play golf in the snow, equipped with racquets on their feet and improvising a course market out by flags. For others, it was the writer Rudyard Kipling (1865-1936), author of "The Jungle Book", that invented the concept at his American home in Vermont, accompanied by Sir Authur Conan Doyle (Sherlock Holmes), who was also passionate about golf.

An 18-hole golf course in the heart of the Loire Valley

76 of the 78 hectares comprising the castle grounds are taken up by an 18-hole golf course.

The Sept Tours golf course is a 72 par, laid out in two parts. The first is in a naturally wooded environment, which is good for a challenge or two! The greens are surrounded by bunkers. The second part is less wooded but includes water obstacles.
