Of the outdoor activities in Les Gets, golf is perhaps the least expected: a full 18-hole course laid out along the Chavannes ridge at 1,430 m. The tourist office describes it running between forest edges, mountain pastures and panoramic ridges, with a constant view of the Mont Blanc range.

The course in numbers

At 5,156 m for a par 70 the course is short on paper, but the terrain makes up for it. Each hole is named after a nearby summit or landmark: Mont-Caly, Pointe de Nantaux, Mont-Blanc, Léman, Roc d’Enfer, Mont-Chéry, La Rosta… The course has four par 5s, eight par 4s and six par 3s according to the hole list published by the tourist office (which contains a numbering slip at holes 15 and 16).

A mountain course

The tourist office is clear: the course is steep. Buggies are recommended, though you can walk it. Be aware that play may be temporarily suspended during thunderstorms or severe mountain weather. Golf attire is required (golf shorts, polo shirt and suitable shoes).

Practice facilities

The practice areas are free to use during the season, according to the tourist office:

• a driving range with 8 outdoor mats and 5 covered bays;
• a 230 m² putting green;
• two short-game areas, each with a practice bunker.

The driving range and putting green were moved in 2001, according to the history published by the golf club. Lessons for beginners and experienced players are available: see the club’s website for options. The Multi Pass Portes du Soleil includes access to the driving range, according to the tourist office.

Season and opening hours

The course opens in summer only. For 2026, two official sets of dates coexist:

The 2027 season dates had not been published as of 9 November 2026. Opening hours and green fees are on dedicated pages of the official Les Gets golf website, which we do not reproduce here.

The golf course in winter
